[PATCH v3 04/17] sparse-checkout: 'set' subcommand

["Derrick Stolee via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@xxxxxxxxx>]

From: Derrick Stolee <dstolee@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The 'git sparse-checkout set' subcommand takes a list of patterns
as arguments and writes them to the sparse-checkout file. Then, it
updates the working directory using 'git read-tree -mu HEAD'.

The 'set' subcommand will replace the entire contents of the
sparse-checkout file. The write_patterns_and_update() method is
extracted from cmd_sparse_checkout() to make it easier to implement
'add' and/or 'remove' subcommands in the future.
