reset $pathspec: no need to discard index

Since 34110cd (Make 'unpack_trees()' have a separate source and
destination index, 2008-03-06), the index no longer gets clobbered by
do_diff_cache() and we can remove the code for discarding and
re-reading it.

There are two paths to update_index_refresh() from cmd_reset(), but on
both paths, either read_cache() or read_cache_unmerged() will have
been called, so the call to read_cache() in this method is redundant
(although practically free).

This speeds up "git reset -- ." a little on the linux-2.6 repo (best
of five, warm cache):

sys     0m0.050s    0m0.050s
