On index load, clear/set the skip worktree bits based on the virtual
file system data. Use virtual file system data to update skip-worktree
bit in unpack-trees. Use virtual file system data to exclude files and
folders not explicitly requested.
Update 2022-04-05: disable the "present-despite-SKIP_WORKTREE" file removal
behavior when 'core.virtualfilesystem' is enabled.

The idea is to allow blob objects to be missing from the local repository,
and to load them lazily on demand.
After discussing this idea on the mailing list, we will rename the feature
to "lazy clone" and work more on this.

This does not do anything yet. The next patches will add various values
for that config setting that correspond to the various features
offered/required by GVFS.

Earlier, 47cfc9bd (attr: add flag `--source` to work with tree-ish,
2023-01-14) taught "git check-attr" the "--source=<tree>" option to
allow it to read attribute files from a tree-ish, but did so only
for the command. Just like "check-attr" users wanted a way to use
attributes from a tree-ish and not from the working tree files,
users of other commands (like "git diff") would benefit from the
same.
Undo most of the UI change the commit made, while keeping the
internal logic to read attributes from a given tree-ish. Expose the
internal logic via a new "--attr-source=<tree>" command line option
given to "git", so that it can be used with any git command that
runs as part of the main git process.
Additionally, add an environment variable GIT_ATTR_SOURCE that is set
when --attr-source is passed in, so that subprocesses use the same value
for the attributes source tree.

This is one step towards making strbuf.c not depend upon cache.h.
Additional steps will follow in subsequent commits.

The `getenv_safe()` helper function helps to safely retrieve multiple
environment values without the need to depend on platform-specific
behaviour for the return value's lifetime. We'll make use of this
function in a following patch, so let's make it available by making it
non-static and adding a declaration.
