[PATCH v5 3/7] fsmonitor: teach git to optionally utilize a file system monitor to speed up detecting new or changed files.

When the index is read from disk, the query-fsmonitor index extension is used to flag the last known potentially dirty index and untracked cache entries. If git finds out some entries are 'fsmonitor-dirty', but are really unchanged (e.g. the file was changed, then reverted back), then Git will
