add: introduce "--renormalize"

Make it safer to normalize the line endings in a repository.
Files that had been commited with CRLF will be commited with LF.

The old way to normalize a repo was like this:

 # Make sure that there are not untracked files
 $ echo "* text=auto" >.gitattributes
 $ git read-tree --empty
 $ git add .
 $ git commit -m "Introduce end-of-line normalization"

The user must make sure that there are no untracked files,
otherwise they would have been added and tracked from now on.

The new "add --renormalize" does not add untracked files:

 $ echo "* text=auto" >.gitattributes
 $ git add --renormalize .
 $ git commit -m "Introduce end-of-line normalization"

Note that "git add --renormalize <pathspec>" is the short form for
"git add -u --renormalize <pathspec>".

While at it, document that the same renormalization may be needed,
whenever a clean filter is added or changed.
