Merge branch 'ma/lockfile-fixes'
An earlier update made it possible to use an on-stack in-core lockfile structure (as opposed to having to deliberately leak an on-heap one). Many codepaths have been updated to take advantage of this new facility. * ma/lockfile-fixes: read_cache: roll back lock in `update_index_if_able()` read-cache: leave lock in right state in `write_locked_index()` read-cache: drop explicit `CLOSE_LOCK`-flag cache.h: document `write_locked_index()` apply: remove `newfd` from `struct apply_state` apply: move lockfile into `apply_state` cache-tree: simplify locking logic checkout-index: simplify locking logic tempfile: fix documentation on `delete_tempfile()` lockfile: fix documentation on `close_lock_file_gently()` treewide: prefer lockfiles on the stack sha1_file: do not leak `lock_file`
