The post-context of this hunk is quite interesting in that there is
a call to read_skip_worktree_file_from_index(); which essentially
pretends as if we read from the filesystem but in fact it grabs the
blob object name registered in the index and reads from it.
The reason why it is interesting is because this patch adds yet
nother "let's instead read from a blob object" function and there is
no sign to make the existing one take advantage of the new function
seen in this patch.
