This gets rid of the whole tree cache refresh. Instead only path that
we touch will get refreshed. We may still lstat() more than needed,
but it'd be better playing safe.
This potentially reduces a large number of lstat() on big trees. Take
gentoo-x86 tree for example, which has roughly 80k files:
Unmodified Git:

In the previous attempt, refresh_cache_entry() returns a new cache_entry.
It does not modify the_index, so tests failed.
