Make "update-cache" a bit friendlier to use (and harder to mis-use).

It now requires the "--add" flag before you add any new files, and
a "--remove" file if you want to mark files for removal. And giving
it the "--refresh" flag makes it just update all the files that it
already knows about.

This implements the new "recursive tree" write-tree.

It's got some debugging printouts etc still in it, but testing on the
kernel seems to show that it does indeed fix the issue with huge tree
files for each commit.

pathnames in them. We're migrating away from that.

This will cause tons of warnings for the current "sparse" archive,
but hell, better now than later.

This is totally untested, since we can't actually _write_ things that
way yet, but I'll get to that next, I hope. That should fix the
huge wasted space for kernel-sized tree objects.

Once I do the reference tracking, I'll also make it print out all the

Add "diff-tree" program to show which files have changed between two trees.

Very useful for creating diffs efficiently, and in general to see what has

Make "read-tree" read the tree into the current directory cache.

It will no longer update the actual working directory, just the

Make "write_cache()" and friends available as generic routines.

This is needed for the change to make "read-tree" just read into the

contents).

Fix "checkout-cache.c" mis-use of read_sha1_file() interface.

It's supposed to test the returned file type, not think that read_sha1_file()

Add a "checkout-cache" command which does what the name suggests.

I'll also eventually change "read-tree" to only update the cache
information, instead of doing a checkout of the tree. Much nicer.

Make the cache stat information comparator public.

Like the cache filename finder, it's a generically useful function,

Make "cache_name_pos()" available to others.

It finds the cache entry position for a given name, and is
generally useful. Sure, everybody can just scan the active
cache array, but since it's sorted, you actually want to
search it with a binary search, so let's not duplicate that
logic all over the place.

infrastructure in place to use the old patch applicator scripts I
am trying to build up, I ended up fixing the thing by hand instead.

Credit where credit is due, though. Nice to see that people are
