Currently 'git checkout' is defined as an overlay operation, which
means that if in 'git checkout <tree-ish> -- [<pathspec>]' we have an
entry in the index that matches <pathspec>, but that doesn't exist in
<tree-ish>, that entry will not be removed from the index or the
working tree.
Introduce a new --{,no-}overlay option, which allows using 'git
checkout' in non-overlay mode, thus removing files from the working
tree if they do not exist in <tree-ish> but match <pathspec>.
Note that 'git checkout -p <tree-ish> -- [<pathspec>]' already works
this way, so no changes are needed for the patch mode. We disallow
'git checkout --overlay -p' to avoid confusing users who would expect
to be able to force overlay mode in 'git checkout -p' this way.
Untracked files are not affected by this change, so 'git checkout
--no-overlay HEAD -- untracked' will not remove untracked from the
working tree. This is so e.g. 'git checkout --no-overlay HEAD -- dir/'
doesn't delete all untracked files in dir/, but rather just resets the
state of files that are known to git.

Factor out the code that marks a cache entry as matched for checkout
into a separate function. We are going to introduce a new mode in
'git checkout' in a subsequent commit, that is going to have a
slightly different logic. This would make this code unnecessarily
complex.
Moving that complexity into separate functions will make the code in
the subsequent step easier to follow.

The key point for the if statement is that read_tree_some did not
update the entry, because either it doesn't exist in tree-ish or
doesn't match the pathspec. Clarify that.

When marking cache entries for removal, and later removing them all at
once using 'remove_marked_cache_entries()', cache entries currently
have to be invalidated manually in the cache tree and in the untracked
cache.
Add an invalidate flag to the function. With the flag set, the
function will take care of invalidating the path in the cache tree and
in the untracked cache.
Note that the current callsites already do the invalidation properly
in other places, so we're just passing 0 from there to keep the status
quo.
This will be useful in a subsequent commit.

'checkout_entry()' currently only supports creating new entries in the
working tree, but not deleting them. Add the ability to remove
entries at the same time if the entry is marked with the CE_WT_REMOVE
flag.
Currently this doesn't have any effect, as the CE_WT_REMOVE flag is
only used in unpack-tree, however we will make use of this in a
subsequent step in the series.

Factor out the 'unlink_entry()' function from unpack-trees.c to
entry.c. It will be used in other places as well in subsequent
steps.
As it's no longer a static function, also move the documentation to
the header file to make it more discoverable.

The 'git worktree' command used to be just another mode in 'git
checkout', namely 'git checkout --to'. When the tests for the latter
were retrofitted for the former, the test name was adjusted, but the
test number was kept, even though the test is testing a different
command now. t/README states: "Second digit tells the particular
command we are testing.", so 'git worktree' should have a separate
number just for itself.
Move the worktree tests to t24* to adhere to that guideline. We're
going to make use of the free'd up numbers in a subsequent commit.

The text body of section Behavioral Differences is typeset as code,
but should be regular text. Remove the indentation to achieve that.
While here, prettify the language:
- use "the x backend" instead of "x-based rebase";
- use present tense instead of future tense;
and use subsections instead of a list.

Commit d8981c3f88 ("format-patch: do not let its diff-options affect
--range-diff", 2018-11-30) taught `show_range_diff()` to accept a
NULL-pointer as an indication that it should use its own "reasonable
default". That fixed a regression from a5170794 ("Merge branch
'ab/range-diff-no-patch'", 2018-11-18), but unfortunately it introduced
a regression of its own.
In particular, it means we forget the `file` member of the diff options,
so rather than placing a range-diff in the cover-letter, we write it to
stdout. In order to fix this, rewrite the two callers adjusted by
d8981c3f88 to instead create a "dummy" set of diff options where they
only fill in the fields we absolutely require, such as output file and
color.
Modify and extend the existing tests to try and verify that the right
contents end up in the right place.
Don't revert `show_range_diff()`, i.e., let it keep accepting NULL.
Rather than removing what is dead code and figuring out it isn't
actually dead and we've broken 2.20, just leave it for now.

"git format-patch --range-diff" by mistake passed the diff options
used to generate the primary output of the command to the

on the range-diff machinery when driven by format-patch.
