Figure out missing pieces

Running cargo fetch immediately after cargo fetcher sync still results in several seconds of work on Linux, when it should be basically nothing. There is probably something missing during a sync that cargo relies on for a "freshness" check, but I haven't found a likely culprit. This is far worse on Windows however, which is the bigger problem.
I think this was improved a bit with 0.7.0, but there is still a big problem, particularly on Windows with the index. It seems that Windows just reclones the entirety of the index which is very obvious since it takes like 3 minutes, but it's possible the same problem exists on linux, you just don't notice it because the filesystem isn't stupid.
