git-merge-ours: make sure our index matches HEAD

git-merge expects this check to be done appropriately by the
merge strategy backends.  In the case of merge-ours strategy,
the resulting tree comes what we have in the index file, so it
must match the current HEAD; otherwise it would not be "ours"
merge.
