 - ls-files: move only kept cache entries in prune_cache()
 - ls-files: pass prefix length explicitly to prune_cache()

 "ls-files" run with pathspec has been micro-optimized to avoid one
 extra call to memmove().

Nit: The number of memmove(3) calls stays the same, but the number of
bytes that are moved is reduced.

Blush X-< you are right of course.  Will fix to say "... to avoid
having to memmove(3) unnecessary bytes."

Thanks.
