merge: fix save_state() to work when there are stat-dirty files

When there are stat-dirty files, but no files are modified,
`git stash create` exits with unsuccessful status.  This causes merge
to fail.  Copy some code from sequencer.c's create_autostash to refresh
the index first to avoid this problem.
