When merge conflicts occur in paths removed by a sparse-checkout, we
need to unsparsify those paths (clear the SKIP_WORKTREE bit), and write
out the conflicted file to the working copy. In the very unlikely case
that someone manually put a file into the working copy at the location
of the SKIP_WORKTREE file, we need to avoid overwriting whatever edits
they have made and move that file to a different location first.

If there is a conflict during a merge for a SKIP_WORKTREE entry, we
expect that file to be written to the working copy and have the
SKIP_WORKTREE bit cleared in the index. If the user had manually
created a file in the working tree despite SKIP_WORKTREE being set, we
do not want to clobber their changes to that file, but want to move it
out of the way. Add tests that check for these behaviors.
