[PATCH v2 7/7] read-tree: make three-way merge sparse-aware

["Victoria Dye via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@xxxxxxxxx>]

From: Victoria Dye <vdye@xxxxxxxxxx>

Enable use of 'merged_sparse_dir' in 'threeway_merge'. As with two-way
merge, the contents of each conflicted sparse directory are merged without
referencing the index, avoiding sparse index expansion.
