Create a new version of index_dir_exists() to return the canonical
spelling of the matched directory prefix.

The existing index_dir_exists() returns a boolean to indicate if
there is a case-insensitive match in the directory name-hash, but
it doesn't tell the caller the exact spelling of that match.

The new version also copies the matched spelling to a provided strbuf.
This lets the caller, for example, then call index_name_pos() with the
correct case to search the cache-entry array for the real insertion
position.

Missing inter-function blank line, before the new function.

I wonder if we can avoid such repetition---the body of
index_dir_exists() is 100% shared with this new function.

Isn't it extremely unusual to receive "struct strbuf *" and call
strbuf_init() on it?  It means that the caller is expected to have a
strbuf and pass a pointer to it, but also it is expected to leave
the strbuf uninitialized.

I'd understand if it calls strbuf_reset(), but it may not even be
necessary, if we make it responsibility of the caller to pass a
valid strbuf to be appended into.

	int index_dir_find(struct index_state *istate,
			   const char *name, int namelen,
			   struct strbuf *canonical_path)
	{
                 struct dir_entry *dir;

                 lazy_init_name_hash(istate);
                 expand_to_path(istate, name, namelen, 0);
                 dir = find_dir_entry(istate, name, namelen);

                 if (canonical_path && dir && dir->nr) {
			// strbuf_reset(canonical_path); ???
                 	strbuf_add(canonical_path, dir->name, dir->namelen);
		}
                 return dir && dir->nr;
	}

Then we can do

	#define index_dir_exists(i, n, l) index_dir_find((i), (n), (l), NULL)

in the header for existing callers.


I'm always a little hesitant to change the signature of an existing
function and chasing all of the callers in the middle of another
task.  It can sometimes be distracting to reviewers.

I like your macro approach here. I'll do that in the next version.

Thanks
Jeff
