twoway_merge() is missing an o->gently check in the case where a file
that needs to be modified is missing from the index but present in the
old and new trees.  As a result, in this case 'git checkout -m' errors
out instead of trying to perform a merge.

Fix it by checking o->gently.  While at it, inline the o->gently check
into reject_merge to prevent future call sites from making the same
mistake.

Noticed by code inspection.  The motivating case hasn't been tested.

This is the most iffy of the three patches, mostly because I was too
lazy to write a test.  I believe it's safe as-is nonetheless.

Thanks for reading.
