The test case probably describes the test scenario the best. We have a
patch to modify some file but the base file is gone. Because
check_preimage() finds an index entry with the same old_name, it tries
to restore the on-disk base file with cached content with
checkout_target() and move on.
If this old_name is i-t-a, before this patch "apply -3" will call
checkout_target() which will write an empty file (i-t-a entries always
have "empty blob" SHA-1), then it'll fail at verify_index_match()
(i-t-a entries are always "modified") and the operation is aborted.
This empty file should not be created. Compare to the case where
old_name does not exist in index, "apply -3" fails with a different
error message "...: does not exist" but it does not touch
worktree. This patch makes sure the same happens to i-t-a entries.
load_current() shares the same code pattern (look up an index entry,
if on-disk version is not found, restore using the cached
version). Fix it too (even though it's not exercised in any test case)
