fix(merge): refuse a merge that would overwrite an untracked file in the target

Before merging (or staging a conflict resolution's git add -A), compare the
branch's newly-added paths against what's currently untracked in the target
working directory. A collision aborts with a new untracked_collision status
naming the path and size, surfaced through merge_task/review_task,
preview_merge/preview_merge_set (which merge-tree alone can't see), and the
UI merge paths via FlashFooterError/ShowErrorAsync instead of a silent
catch{}. git's own preflight already refuses this while the path stays
untracked at merge time; this closes the gap once a path becomes trackable
in between (e.g. an unrelated conflict resolution's git add -A) or across
the continue_merge TOCTOU window.
