Whenever a sparse checkout occurs, the existence of all blobs in the
index is verified, whether or not they are included or excluded by the
.git/info/sparse-checkout specification. This degrades performance,
significantly in the case of a partial clone, because a lazy fetch
occurs whenever the existence of a missing blob is checked.
At the point of invoking cache_tree_update() in unpack_trees(),
CE_SKIP_WORKTREE is already set on all excluded blobs
(mark_new_skip_worktree() is called twice to set CE_NEW_SKIP_WORKTREE,
then apply_sparse_checkout() is called which copies over
CE_NEW_SKIP_WORKTREE to CE_SKIP_WORKTREE). cache_tree_update() can use
this information to know which blobs are excluded, and thus skip the
checking of these.
Because cache_tree_update() is used from multiple places, this new
behavior is guarded by a new flag WRITE_TREE_SKIP_WORKTREE_MISSING_OK.
Implement this new flag, and teach unpack_trees() to invoke
cache_tree_update() with this new flag.
