lib/oe/patch: handle patches that delete files with older git
When running "git add" on a directory with older git versions, deleted files aren't added to what is to be committed unless you explicitly specify the -A option. The result of this is that when applying a patch from a recipe which doesn't apply with "git am" (and we fall back to applying the patch through other means then "git add" following by a "git commit") these deletes weren't committed with the patch, leaving them sitting deleted but not committed at the end. This should fix test_devtool_modify_native (which unwittingly exercises this scenario by attempting to run "devtool modify" on apt-native) on machines with older git versions.
