[v6,05/19] sparse-checkout: add '--stdin' option to set subcommand

Commit Message

From: Derrick Stolee <[e-mail]>

The 'git sparse-checkout set' subcommand takes a list of patterns
and places them in the sparse-checkout file. Then, it updates the
working directory to match those patterns. For a large list of
patterns, the command-line call can get very cumbersome.

Add a '--stdin' option to instead read patterns over standard in.

+When the `--stdin` option is provided, the patterns are read from
