1. add: use preload-index and fscache for performance …

   Teach "add" to use preload-index and fscache features
   to improve performance on very large repositories.
   
   During an "add", a call is made to run_diff_files()
   which calls check_remove() for each index-entry.  This
   calls lstat().  On Windows, the fscache code intercepts
   the lstat() calls and builds a private cache using the
   FindFirst/FindNext routines, which are much faster.
   
   Somewhat independent of this, is the preload-index code
   which distributes some of the start-up costs across
   multiple threads.
