t1092: use GIT_PROGRESS_DELAY for consistent results

The t1092-sparse-checkout-compatibility.sh tests compare the stdout and
stderr for several Git commands across both full checkouts, sparse
checkouts with a full index, and sparse checkouts with a sparse index.
Since these are direct comparisons, sometimes a progress indicator can
flush at unpredictable points, especially on slower machines. This
causes the tests to be flaky.

One standard way to avoid this is to add GIT_PROGRESS_DELAY=0 to the Git
commands that are run, as this will force every progress indicator
created with start_progress_delay() to be created immediately. However,
there are some progress indicators that are created in the case of a
full index that are not created with a sparse index. Moreover, their
values may be different as those indexes have a different number of
entries.

Instead, use GIT_PROGRESS_DELAY=-1 (which will turn into UINT_MAX)
to ensure that any reasonable machine running these tests would
never display delayed progress indicators.
