Teach status command to handle `--ignored=matching` with
`--untracked-files=normal`

Teach the status command more flexibility in how ignored files are
reported. Currently, the reporting of ignored files and untracked
files are linked. You cannot control how ignored files are reported
independently of how untracked files are reported (i.e. `all` vs
`normal`). This makes it impossible to show untracked files with the
`all` option, but show ignored files with the `normal` option.
This work 1) adds the ability to control the reporting of ignored
files independently of untracked files and 2) introduces the concept
of status reporting ignored paths that explicitly match an ignored
pattern. There are 2 benefits to these changes: 1) if a consumer needs
all untracked files but not all ignored files, there is a performance
benefit to not scanning all contents of an ignored directory and 2)
returning ignored files that explicitly match a path allow a consumer
to make more informed decisions about when a status result might be
stale.
This commit implements --ignored=matching with --untracked-files=all.
The following commit will implement --ignored=matching with
--untracked=files=normal.
As an example of where this flexibility could be useful is that our
application (Visual Studio) runs the status command and presents the
output. It shows all untracked files individually (e.g. using the
'--untracked-files==all' option), and would like to know about which
paths are ignored. It uses information about ignored paths to make
decisions about when the status result might have changed.
Additionally, many projects place build output into directories inside
a repository's working directory (e.g. in "bin/" and "obj/"
directories). Normal usage is to explicitly ignore these 2 directory
names in the .gitignore file (rather than or in addition to the *.obj
pattern).If an application could know that these directories are
explicitly ignored, it could infer that all contents are ignored as
well and make better informed decisions about files in these
directories. It could infer that any changes under these paths would
not affect the output of status. Additionally, there can be a
significant performance benefit by avoiding scanning through ignored
directories.
When status is set to report matching ignored files, it has the
following behavior. Ignored files and directories that explicitly
match an exclude pattern are reported. If an ignored directory matches
an exclude pattern, then the path of the directory is returned. If a
directory does not match an exclude pattern, but all of its contents
are ignored, then the contained files are reported instead of the
directory.

In the "--format=..." option of the "git for-each-ref" command (and
its friends, i.e. the listing mode of "git branch/tag"), "%(atom:)"

them as if the colon and an empty string that follows it were not
there.
