Fix racy fsmonitor

The `t7519-status-fsmonitor.sh` tests became a *lot* more flaky with the
recent fsmonitor fix (`js/fsmonitor-refresh-after-discarding-index`).
That fix, however, did not introduce the flakiness, but it just made it
much more likely to be hit. And it seemed to be hit *only* on Windows.

The reason, though, is that the fsmonitor feature failed to mark the
in-memory index as changed, i.e. in need of writing, and it was the
`has_racy_timestamp()` test that hid this bug in most cases (although a
lot less on Windows, where the files' mtimes are actually a lot more
accurate than on Linux).

This fixes https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/issues/197
