If a file is unchanged but stat-dirty, git-apply may erroneously fail to apply patches, thinking that they conflict with a dirty working tree.
As such, since 2a6f08a (am: refresh the index at start and --resolved, 2011-08-15), git-am will refresh the index before applying patches. Re-implement this behavior.
