[v2,1/3] checkout: document bug where delayed checkout counts entries twice

Commit Message

At the end of a `git checkout <pathspec>` operation, git reports how
many paths were checked out with a message like "Updated N paths from
the index". However, entries that end up on the delayed checkout queue
(as requested by a long-running process filter) get counted twice,
producing a wrong number in the final report. We will fix this bug in an
upcoming commit. For now, only document/demonstrate it with a
test_expect_failure.
