From: Victoria Dye <vdye@xxxxxxxxxx>
Adjust the 'git mktree' tree entry intake logic to no longer fail if an OID
specified with a S_IFGITLINK mode exists in the current repository's object
database with a different type.
While this scenario likely represents a mistake by the user, submodule OIDs
are not validated as part of object writes or in 'git fsck'. In other
commands, any object info would be ignored if such an OID was found in the
current repository with a different type.
Since this check is not needed to avoid creation of a corrupt tree, let's
remove it and make 'git mktree' less opinionated as a result.
