When in cone mode, "git sparse-checkout set" takes a list of folders and
constructs an ordered list of patterns for the sparse-checkout file. The
"git sparse-checkout list" subcommand outputs the contents of the
sparse-checkout file in a very basic way.

This patch changes the behavior of "git sparse-checkout list" when
core.sparseCheckoutCone=true. It will output the folders that were used in
"git sparse-checkout set" to create the patterns, instead of the patterns
themselves.

I believe this was requested in the initial review, but I cannot find that
message now.

I was going to include this as part of a longer follow-up series, but I
think this may be worth considering for the 2.25.0 release. Hence, it is
included by itself.

Thanks, -Stolee
