Nice. I peeked around and noticed that we already do this in
builtin_diff_index() before running run_diff_index() when !cached,
and builtin_diff_files(), of course.

It is not explained why this is not a mere s/read_cache/&_preload/
in the log message. I can see it is because you wanted to make the
pathspec available to preload to further cut down the preloaded
paths, and I do not think it has any unintended (negatie) side
effect to parse the pathspec before populating the in-core index,
but that would have been a good thing to mention in the proposed log
message.
