sparse: add vfs-specific precautions

* t1092: remove the 'git update-index' test that currently fails
  because the command ignores the bad path, but doesn't return a
  failure.

* dir.c: prevent matching against sparse-checkout patterns when the
  virtual filesystem is enabled. Should prevent some corner case
  issues.

* t1092: add quiet mode for some rebase tests because the stderr
  output can change in some of the modes.
