Just a bit of update. I'm still working on the second half. Code
change is even more than this, so I will wait until the first half
gets reviewed and accepted before sending the rest.

BTW, in the first half, unpack_trees()-related commands may refuse to
work if there is orphaned/stale entries in working directory
(verify_*() functions still look at working directory no matter
whether entries are no-checkout). Those entries are troublesome anyway
so encouraging people to clean them out is, IMHO, a good idea, rather
than fixing unpack_trees() to ignore them.
