[PATCH 0/9] make stash apply with --index by default

["D. Ben Knoble" <ben.knoble+github@gmail.com>]

Since git-stash's inception, it has defaulted to stashing the index but not
restoring it. This has caused some confusion: change the default as part of Git
3.0 to unstash the index, too.

I ran into this myself a while back and did some digging; it appears that other
have been bit, too (see references in patch 3). Moreover, when git-stash was
originally written, defaulting with --index was suggested but not implemented
before the script merged. So this RFC should bring us back towards "less
confusing," hopefully.

The series is structured as follows:

Patches 1-2: unrelated prep/style commits noticed while working on tests.
Patch 3: update Documentation/BreakingChanges.adoc. This seems like a natural
    place to discuss the proposal, so it contains no other changes.
Patch 4: make it so in builtin/stash.c.
Patches 5-9: update the impacted tests. Separated out for ease of review. I used
    a style more like "split the test into 2: one with, one without breaking
    changes." In retrospect, the diff might be smaller (and the 2 versions of
    the test easier to compare) if I used "test_has_prereq" in the tests… but at
    the cost of making the tests harder to follow. Thoughts?
