446cc5544a t2500: add various tests for nuking untracked files
Noting that unpack_trees treats reset=1 & update=1 as license to nuke
untracked files, I looked for code paths that use this combination and
tried to generate testcases which demonstrated unintentional loss of
untracked files and directories.  I found several.

I also include testcases for `git reset --{hard,merge,keep}`.  A hard
reset is perhaps the most direct test of unpack_tree's reset=1 behavior,
but we cannot make `git reset --hard` preserve untracked files without
some migration work.

Also, the two commands `checkout --force` (because of the --force) and
`read-tree --reset` (because it's plumbing and we need to keep it
backward compatible) were left out as we expect those to continue
removing untracked files and directories.
