Commit b5227d8 changed the behavior of "ls-files" with
respect to includes, but accidentally broke the "-i" option
The original behavior was:
1. if no "-i" is given, cull all results according to --exclude*
2. if "-i" is given, show the inverse of (1)
The broken behavior was:
1. if no "-i" is given:
a. for "-o", cull results according to --exclude*
b. for index files, always show all
2. if "-i" is given:
a. for "-o", shows the inverse of (1a)
b. for index files, always show all
The fixed behavior keeps the new (1b) behavior introduced
by b5227d8, but fixes the (2b) behavior to show only ignored
files, not all files.
This patch also tweaks the documentation. The original text
was somewhat obscure in the first place, but it is also now
inaccurate (the relationship between (1b) and (2b) is not
quite a "reverse").

In all parts of git, .gitignore and other exclude files
impact only how we treat untracked files; they should have
no effect on files listed in the index.
This behavior was originally implemented very early on in
9ff768e, but only for --exclude-from. Later, commit 63d285c
accidentally caused us to trigger the behavior for
--exclude-per-directory.
This patch totally ignores excludes for files found in the
index. This means we are reversing the original intent of
9ff768e, while at the same time fixing the accidental
behavior of 63d285c. This is a good thing, though, as the
way that 9ff768e behaved does not really make sense with the
way exclusions are used in modern git.
