For current vc, restore from backup would only work after a commit which
i don't think is desirable much as you could go days without a commit
and 'C-u C-x v x' saying it will not delete the file would be wrong.
I don't know vc-internals but vc-git using git's --porcelain as juri
said is probably a much better idea.
