Fixed GIT_DIFF_UPDATE_INDEX not being aware of executable bit changes
In the prior implementation, enabling GIT_DIFF_UPDATE_INDEX would overwrite entries in the index with the ones generated from scanning the working if the OID was the same. Because this OID comparison ignores file modes, this means an file in the workdir with only an exec bit difference with the one in the index would end up being overwritten, resulting in the exec bit being loss. There might be other related bugs but the fix of comparing OIDs and file modes should address them all.
