To put it differently, if a blob stored at path has CRLF line
endings and .gitattributes is changed after the fact to say that it
must have LF line endings, we should treat it as a broken transitory
state.  There may have to be a way to "fix" an already "wrong" blob
in the index that is milder than "rm --cached && add .", but I do
not think write_entry(), which is shared by all the normal codepaths
that writes out to the working tree, is the best place to do so, if
doing so forces the contents of the paths to be always re-checked,
just in case the user is in such a broken transitory state.
