sparse-index: add index.sparse config option

When enabled, this config option signals that index writes should
attempt to use sparse-directory entries.

Defaults to 'true' if index.threads has been explicitly enabled,
'false' otherwise.
index.sparse::
When enabled, write the index using sparse-directory entries. This
has no effect unless `core.sparseCheckout` and
`core.sparseCheckoutCone` are both enabled. Defaults to 'false'.
index.threads::
Specifies the number of threads to spawn when loading the index.
This is meant to reduce index load time on multiprocessor machines.
