    dir.c: git-status --ignored: don't scan the work tree twice · 0aaf62b6

    'git-status --ignored' still scans the work tree twice to collect
    untracked and ignored files, respectively.
    
    fill_directory / read_directory already supports collecting untracked and
    ignored files in a single directory scan. However, the DIR_COLLECT_IGNORED
    flag to enable this has some git-add specific side-effects (e.g. it
    doesn't recurse into ignored directories, so listing ignored files with
    --untracked=all doesn't work).
    
    The DIR_SHOW_IGNORED flag doesn't list untracked files and returns ignored
    files in dir_struct.entries[] (instead of dir_struct.ignored[] as
    DIR_COLLECT_IGNORED). DIR_SHOW_IGNORED is used all throughout git.
    
    We don't want to break the existing API, so lets introduce a new flag
    DIR_SHOW_IGNORED_TOO that lists untracked as well as ignored files similar
    to DIR_COLLECT_FILES, but will recurse into sub-directories based on the
    other flags as DIR_SHOW_IGNORED does.
    
    In dir.c::read_directory_recursive, add ignored files to either
    dir_struct.entries[] or dir_struct.ignored[] based on the flags. Also move
    the DIR_COLLECT_IGNORED case here so that filling result lists is in a
    common place.
    
    In wt-status.c::wt_status_collect_untracked, use the new flag and read
    results from dir_struct.ignored[]. Remove the extra fill_directory call.
    
    builtin/check-ignore.c doesn't call fill_directory, setting the git-add
    specific DIR_COLLECT_IGNORED flag has no effect here. Remove for clarity.
    
    Update API documentation to reflect the changes.
    
    Performance: with this patch, 'git-status --ignored' is typically as fast
    as 'git-status'.
