[PATCH 00/19] Untracked cache to speed up "git status"

The last post was five months ago [1]. It's probably time for a resend in case I'm hit by a bus. Numbers are in 17/19, saving about 40% time on "git status". Details are in 02/19 and 06/19. Still on the table:

 - index-helper series [2] probably helps save about 10-15% in total
 - watchman support to lower the numbers even more, but not for Windows
I still need to see how watchman can be made on top of this.
