[PATCH 0/9] "git status" that is not "git commit --dry-run"

Here is an update relative to 7637868 (wt-status: collect untracked files in a separate "collect" phase, 2009-08-10) that has been queued in 'next'.

[PATCH 1/9] and [PATCH 2/9] are the same from last night's fixes.

[PATCH 3/9] through [PATCH 6/9] introduce a new "git status" with different semantics for 1.7.0 under a tentative name "git stat". They will be squashed into one commit in the final round, as 4, 5, and 6 are fix-ups, but are keft separate for easier review.

    The new "git status" handles paths differently from the traditional
    one.  It used to be the preview of "git commit paths...", IOW,
    "show what would happen if we try to make a partial commit of only
    these paths".  The new "git status" only limits the paths the output
    talks about and is not a preview of anything at all anymore.

    Another semantic change is that its exit status no longer says if
    there is something to be committed in the index.  We used to exit with
    non-zero status if there is nothing to commit.

[PATCH 7/9] introduces a short format output.

The last two patches make the new "git status" official. They will be squashed together into one commit in the final round, but are kept separate for reviewability.
