git-rm: do not fail on already removed file.
Often the user would do "/bin/rm foo" before telling git, but then want to tell git about it. "git rm foo" however would fail because it cannot unlink(2) foo. Treat ENOENT error return from unlink(2) as if a successful removal happened. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
