From: Ben Peart <benpe...@microsoft.com>

The optimized `checkout -b` doesn�t typically create/update the index and
working directory.  Add a new test to detect the case when the call to
`checkout -b` is the first call after doing a `clone --no-checkout` and no
index exists.  In this specific case, well now make the call to
merge_working_tree() which will create the index and update the working
directory.

Also simplify and update the test cases based on the feedback provided by
Szeder and Junio.  A shout out to Johannes who diagnosed, fixed and patched
a bug that was preventing me from running the git test suite in the master
branch.
