sparse: refactor update actions filtering and call from core

merge.calculateupdates() now filters the update actions through sparse
by default.

The filtering no-ops if sparse isn't enabled or no sparse config
is defined.

The function has been refactored to behave more like a filter
instead of a wrapper of merge.calculateupdates().

We should arguably take sparse into account earlier in
merge.calculateupdates(). This patch preserves the old behavior
of applying sparse at the end of update calculation, which is the
simplest and safest approach.

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
