[PATCH v6 00/11] Untracked cache improvements

Here is a new version of a patch series to improve the untracked cache feature.

This v6 implements core.untrackedCache as a tristate config variable. When it's `true`, Git commands, especially `git status`, should always add the untracked cache and use it, and when `false`, Git commands should remove it. The default is `keep` in which case the untracked cache is neither removed nor added, and used if it is there.

Patch 1/11 is a small bugfix that has not changed.

Patch 2/11 to 4/11 add some small features that are missing. There are no changes since v5.

Patchs 5/11 to 7/11 are some refactoring to prepare for the following patchs. Also no changes here.

Patch 8/11 deals with the "ident" field in "struct untracked_cache". I rewrote a bit the commit message following some of Torsten's suggestions.

Patch 9/11 adds core.untrackedCache and only has commit message changes and a bit of document changes thanks to Junio compared to v5.

Patch 10/11 is a hack that is needed to have test-dump-untracked-cache work like it used to. I added some comments in the code following Junio's suggestion.

Patch 11/11, which contains tests, has been changed to improve the name of a file that contains the expected output.

So the changes compared to v5 are mostly small updates.
The patch series is also available there:

Thanks to the reviewers and helpers.
