Public bug reported:

Currently `tree -dh`/`tree -h` simply shows the size of the directory
nodes that tend to be 4K in a default ext4 installation with 4K block
sizes. While this is not very useful in terms of UX, it does however
have it's use by not spending a whole lot of IO on calculating recursive
sizes. However, in addition to the current mode, it would be great to
have an option, that recursively adds up the size of the its contents
and displays the total size of the directory (inclusive of all hidden
and dot files), instead of just the directory node size.
