Teach add_index_entry_with_check() and has_dir_name()
to see if the path of the new item is greater than the
last path in the index array before attempting to search
for it.

During checkout, merge_working_tree() populates the new
index in sorted order, so this change will save at least 2
binary lookups per file.  This preserves the original
behavior but simply checks the last element before starting
the search.

This helps performance on very large repositories.
