Make apply --binary a no-op.
Historically we did not allow binary patch applied without an explicit permission from the user, and this flag was the way to do so. This makes the flag a no-op by always allowing binary patch application. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

- When applying a patch, which is a git-enhanced patch
- that was prepared to record the pre- and post-image object
- name in full, and the path being patched exactly matches
- the object the patch applies to (i.e. "index" line's
- pre-image object name is what is in the working tree),
- and the post-image object is available in the object
- database, use the post-image object as the patch
- result. This allows binary files to be patched in a
