Neeraj Singh ba95e96d4c core.fsync: new option to harden the index ...

This commit introduces the new ability for the user to harden
the index. In the event of a system crash, the index must be
durable for the user to actually find a file that has been added
to the repo and then deleted from the working tree.

We use the presence of the COMMIT_LOCK flag and absence of the
alternate_index_output as a proxy for determining whether we're
updating the persistent index of the repo or some temporary
index. We don't sync these temporary indexes.
