checkout: fix interaction between --conflict and --merge

Browse Source 
When using "git checkout" to recreate merge conflicts or merge
uncommitted changes when switching branch "--conflict" sensibly implies
"--merge". Unfortunately the way this is implemented means that "git
checkout --conflict=diff3 --no-merge" implies "--merge" violating the
usual last-one-wins rule. Fix this by only overriding the value of
opts->merge if "--conflicts" comes after "--no-merge" or "-[-no]-merge"
is not given on the command line.

The behavior of "git checkout --merge --no-conflict" is unchanged and
will still merge on the basis that the "-[-no]-conflict" options are
primarily intended to affect the conflict style and so "--no-conflict"
should cancel a previous "--conflict" but not override "--merge".

Of the four new tests the second one tests the behavior change
introduced by this commit, the other three check that this commit does
not regress the existing behavior.
