[v6,06/19] sparse-checkout: create 'disable' subcommand

Commit Message

From: Derrick Stolee <[e-mail]>

The instructions for disabling a sparse-checkout to a full
working directory are complicated and non-intuitive. Add a
subcommand, 'git sparse-checkout disable', to perform those
steps for the user.

-Another tricky thing is fully repopulating the working directory when you
-no longer want sparse checkout. You cannot just disable "sparse
-checkout" because skip-worktree bits are still in the index and your working
