Change: Introduce stage_files API and deprecate stage_files_from_stat…

…us_list

With StatusEntry being a PathLike object a new function stage_files can
be used to add generic file objects to the git staging index. Therefore
stage_files_from_status_list has become obsolete and currently just
forwards to stage_files.
