Lunny Xiao 1463426a27 Use merge tree to detect conflicts when possible (#36400)
In Git 2.38, the `merge-tree` command introduced the `--write-tree`
option, which works directly on bare repositories. In Git 2.40, a new parameter `--merge-base` introduced so we require Git 2.40 to use the merge tree feature.

This option produces the merged tree object ID, allowing us to perform
diffs between commits without creating a temporary repository. By
avoiding the overhead of setting up and tearing down temporary repos,
this approach delivers a notable performance improvement.

It also fixes a possible situation that conflict files might be empty
but it's a conflict status according to
https://git-scm.com/docs/git-merge-tree#_mistakes_to_avoid

Replace #35542
