[PATCH v3] describe: enable sparse index for describe

["Raghul Nanth A via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>]

From: Raghul Nanth A <nanth.raghul@gmail.com>

Add usage and performance tests for describe

Describe uses the index when it is run with --dirty flag, which uses the
run_diff_index commmand. The command is sparse-index aware and hence we
can just set the requires-full-index to false
