Record the worktree location and OS footprint in the cache. If it changes, err on the safe side and disable the cache. The user can 'update-index --untracked-cache' again to make sure all conditions are met. This adds a new requirement that setup_git_directory* must be called before read_cache() because we need worktree location by then, or the cache is dropped. This change does not cover all bases, you can fool it if you try hard. The point is to stop accidents.

untracked cache: guard and disable on system changes

If the user enables untracked cache, then

 - move worktree to an unsupported filesystem
 - or simply upgrade OS
 - or move the whole (portable) disk from one machine to another
 - or access a shared fs from another machine

there's no guarantee that untracked cache can still function properly.
Record the worktree location and OS footprint in the cache. If it
changes, err on the safe side and disable the cache. The user can
'update-index --untracked-cache' again to make sure all conditions are
met.

This adds a new requirement that setup_git_directory* must be called
before read_cache() because we need worktree location by then, or the
cache is dropped.

This change does not cover all bases, you can fool it if you try
hard. The point is to stop accidents.
