In the process of working on tests for 'git stash' sparse index integration,
I found that the '--quiet' option in 'git stash' does not suppress all
non-error output when used with '--index'. Specifically, this comes from an
invocation of 'git reset' without the '--quiet' flag in 'reset_head()'. Upon
enabling that flag, though, I discovered that 1) 'reset' does not refresh
the index if '--quiet' is specified (as of [1]) and 2) 'git stash' needs the
index to be refreshed after the reset.

This series aims to decouple the "suppress logging" and "skip index refresh"
behaviors in 'git reset --mixed', then allow 'stash' to internally use reset
with logs suppressed but index refresh enabled. This is accomplished by
introducing the '--[no-]refresh' option and 'reset.refresh' config setting
to 'git reset'. Additionally, in the spirit of backward-compatibility,
'--quiet' and/or 'reset.quiet=true' without any specified "refresh"
option/config will continue to skip 'refresh_index(...)'.

There are also some minor updates to the advice that suggests skipping the
index refresh:

 * replace recommendation to use "--quiet" with "--no-refresh"
 * use 'advise()' rather than 'printf()'
 * rename the advice config setting from 'advice.resetQuiet' to to
   'advice.resetNoRefresh'
 * suppress advice if '--quiet' is specified in 'reset'

Finally, tests are added to 't7102-reset.sh' verifying whether index refresh
happens when expected and to 't3903-stash.sh' verifying that 'apply --quiet'
no longer prints extraneous logs.


Changes since V1
================

 * Update cover letter title
 * Squash 't7102' test fixes from patch 5 into patch 2
 * Refactor 't7102' tests to properly use inline config settings

Thanks. This version answers all of my concerns and looks ready
to go from my perspective.

I've read this iteration, too, and except for "we should test not
just 'apply -index' but 'push'" in [5/5], everything looked good.

Thanks.
