Cover letter [PATCH v2 0/2] Fix fsmonitor after discard_index()

It was reported by Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason
[https://public-inbox.org/git/[email protected]/T/#mb8718fe52e4721dacd3b143a09187ff9090ef4e3]
that there were problems with the fsmonitor feature in conjunction with the newly built-in git stash/git rebase.

The culprit really is that the fsmonitor flag that says whether it was queried already was not re-set after discard_index() was called by mistake.

This fixes that, and apparently also other long-standing fsmonitor issues.

(Note that there is still a flakiness around t7519
[https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/pull/2127#pullrequestreview-215010574]
where it tries to make sure that the fsmonitor hook can prevent unnecessary lstat() calls, but that seems to be unrelated to this here bug.)

Changes since v1:

* Removed unnecessary test_when_finished "test_config ..." line, pointed out by Hannes Sixt.
