unpack-trees: introduce preserve_ignored to unpack_trees_options

Currently, every caller of unpack_trees() that wants to ensure ignored
files are overwritten by default needs to:
   * allocate unpack_trees_options.dir
   * flip the DIR_SHOW_IGNORED flag in unpack_trees_options.dir->flags
   * call setup_standard_excludes
AND then after the call to unpack_trees() needs to
   * call dir_clear()
   * deallocate unpack_trees_options.dir
That's a fair amount of boilerplate, and every caller uses identical
code.  Make this easier by instead introducing a new boolean value where
the default value (0) does what we want so that new callers of
unpack_trees() automatically get the appropriate behavior.  And move all
the handling of unpack_trees_options.dir into unpack_trees() itself.

While preserve_ignored = 0 is the behavior we feel is the appropriate
default, we defer fixing commands to use the appropriate default until a
later commit.  So, this commit introduces several locations where we
manually set preserve_ignored=1.  This makes it clear where code paths
were previously preserving ignored files when they should not have been;
a future commit will flip these to instead use a value of 0 to get the
behavior we want.
