If a file is unchanged but stat-dirty, git-apply may erroneously fail to
apply patches, thinking that they conflict with a dirty working tree.

As such, since 2a6f08a (am: refresh the index at start and --resolved,
2011-08-15), git-am will refresh the index before applying patches.
Re-implement this behavior.

Good.

I would actually have expected to see this as part of 08/31, though.

Ah right, makes sense since this patch is primarily about git-apply.

I've squashed this patch into 08/31.
