sparse-index: introduce partially-sparse indexes

Browse Source 
A future change will present a temporary, in-memory mode where the index
can both contain sparse directory entries but also not be completely
collapsed to the smallest possible sparse directories. This will be
necessary for modifying the sparse-checkout definition while using a
sparse index.

For now, convert the single-bit member 'sparse_index' in 'struct
index_state' to be a an 'enum sparse_index_mode' with three modes:

* INDEX_EXPANDED (0): No sparse directories exist. This is always the
  case for repositories that do not use cone-mode sparse-checkout.

* INDEX_COLLAPSED: Sparse directories may exist. Files outside the
  sparse-checkout cone are reduced to sparse directory entries whenever
  possible.

* INDEX_PARTIALLY_SPARSE: Sparse directories may exist. Some file
  entries outside the sparse-checkout cone may exist. Running
  convert_to_sparse() may further reduce those files to sparse directory
  entries.

The main reason to store this extra information is to allow
convert_to_sparse() to short-circuit when the index is already in
INDEX_EXPANDED mode but to actually do the necessary work when in
INDEX_PARTIALLY_SPARSE mode.

The INDEX_PARTIALLY_SPARSE mode will be used in an upcoming change.
