read-cache: store in-memory flags in the first 12 bits of ce_flags

We're running out of room for in-memory flags. But since b60e188
(Strip namelen out of ce_flags into a ce_namelen field - 2012-07-11),
we copy the namelen (first 12 bits) to ce_namelen field. So those bits
are free to use. Just make sure we do not accidentally write any
in-memory flags back.
