[PATCH 3/8] unpack_trees(): keep track of unmerged entries

"git read-tree --reset" will currently remove all unmerged entries in index before feeding the index to unpack_trees(). Because the lack of unmerged entries, these entries, when read from tree, will be seen as "new entries" by {one,two,three}way_merge().

This is fine for now. But for sparse checkout, it needs to know whether an entry is new entry, because it will handle it different way than already-in entry.

So the patch moves "unmerged entries removal" part into unpack_trees(), actually unpack_callback(). The function then can turn on o->has_unmerged flag, which can be utilized by sparse checkout.
