[PATCH] read-tree --emu23.

This new flag causes two-way fast forward to internally use the
three-way merge mechanism.  This behaviour is intended to offer
a better fast forward semantics when used in a dirty work tree.

The new test t1005 is parallel to the existing t1001 "pure
2-way" tests, but some parts that are commented out would fail.
These failures are due to three-way merge enforcing too strict
index requirements for cases that could succeed.  This problem
will be addressed by later patches.

Without even changing three-way mechanism, the --emu23 two-way
fast forward already gives the user an easier-to-handle merge
result when a file that "merged head" updates has local
modifications.  This is demonstrated as "case 16" test in t1005.

* Two-way merge emulated with three-way merge.

* This treats "read-tree -m H M" by transforming it internally
* into "read-tree -m H I+H M", where I+H is a tree that would
* contain the contents of the current index file, overlayed on
* top of H. Unlike the traditional two-way merge, this leaves
* the stages in the resulting index file and lets the user resolve
* the merge conflicts using standard tools for three-way merge.
*
* This function is just to set-up such an arrangement, and the
* actual merge uses threeway_merge() function.
