Two new methods: one index method that applies a patch to that index or fails without side-effects (without touching a worktree in either case); and one repository method that uses a temp index to apply a patch to a tree and returning the new tree (or None if the application failed), entirely side-effect free. Nothing uses this yet, but "stg edit" will soon.
