And the solution is pretty obvious: keep resolve-undo extension as
_extension_ just like in v2 (and no "cr/ncr" in direntries). The only
difference is the time resolve-undo extension is updated: in v2, new
entries are added at remove_index_entry_at(), in v5 new entries are
added when new stage entries  are detected at write_index().
