Originally, "git mv" a sparse file from out-of-cone to
in-cone does not update the moved file's sparsity (remove its
SKIP_WORKTREE bit). And the corresponding cache entry is, unexpectedly,
not checked out in the working tree.

Update the behavior so that:
1. Moving from out-of-cone to in-cone removes the SKIP_WORKTREE bit from
   corresponding cache entry.
2. The moved cache entry is checked out in the working tree to reflect
   the updated sparsity.
Since this is a behavior change, can we test it? It would be good
to verify that the new path exists in the worktree after 'git mv'
succeeds.
 
Thanks,
