[PATCH v3 3/6] stash: remove the second index in stash_patch()

[Alban Gruin <alban.gruin@xxxxxxxxx>]

This removes the second index used in stash_patch().

This function starts by resetting the index (which is set at `i_tree')
to HEAD, which has been stored in `b_commit' by do_create_stash(), and
the call to `read-tree' is replaced by reset_tree().  The index is
discarded after run_add_interactive(), but not `diff-tree' as this
command should not change it.

Since the index has been changed, and subsequent code might be sensitive
to this, it is reset to `i_tree' at the end of the function.
