builtin-am: apply patch with git-apply

Implement applying the patch to the index using git-apply.

If a file is unchanged but stat-dirty, git-apply may erroneously fail to
apply patches, thinking that they conflict with a dirty working tree.

As such, since 2a6f08a (am: refresh the index at start and --resolved,
2011-08-15), git-am will refresh the index before applying patches.
Re-implement this behavior.
