notes: track whether notes_trees were changed at all

Currently, the notes copying is a bit wasteful since it always creates
new trees, even if no notes were copied at all.

Teach add_note() and remove_note() to flag the affected notes tree as
changed ('dirty').  Then teach builtin/notes.c to use this knowledge
and avoid committing trees that weren't changed.
