Sadly, [1] (exclude: filter out patterns not applicable to the current
directory) would not help at all, because the regular use case really
would use the top-level directory as current one.

So I really need to speed up the sparse machinery from O(m*n) (where m is
the number of entries in the sparse-checkout file and n is the number of
files in the index).
