[PATCH v8 10/11] test-dump-untracked-cache: don't modify the untracked cache

<1453877887-11586-1-git-send-email-chriscool@tuxfamily.org>

To correctly perform its testing function, test-dump-untracked-cache should not change the state of the untracked cache in the index.

As a previous patch makes read_index_from() change the state of the untracked cache and as test-dump-untracked-cache indirectly calls this function, we need a mechanism to prevent read_index_from() from changing the untracked cache state when it's called from test-dump-untracked-cache.
