verify_absent() and verify_uptodate() are used to ensure worktree is safe to be updated, then CE_REMOVE or CE_UPDATE will be set. Finally check_updates() bases on CE_REMOVE, CE_UPDATE and the recently added CE_WT_REMOVE to update working directory accordingly. The entries that are checked may eventually be left out of checkout area (done later in apply_sparse_checkout()). We don't want to update outside checkout area. This patch teaches Git to assume "good", skip these checks when it's sure those entries will be outside checkout area, and clear CE_REMOVE|CE_UPDATE that could be set due to this assumption.
