[PATCH 15/19] unpack-trees: preserve index extensions

From

Make git checkout (and other unpack_tree operations) preserve the untracked cache and watchman status. This is valuable for two reasons:

1. Often, an unpack_tree operation will not touch large parts of the
working tree, and thus most of the untracked cache will continue to be
valid.
2. Even if the untracked cache were entirely invalidated by such an
operation, the user has signaled their intention to have such a cache,
and we don't want to throw it away.
The same logic applies to the watchman state.
