Support state changing VC operations in dired-mode on files (bug#34949)

* lisp/vc/vc.el (vc-deduce-fileset): Don't error out when observer is nil.
(vc-dired-deduce-fileset): Add optional args 'state-model-only-files'
and 'observer'.  Check that all files are in a consistent state
when state-model-only-files is non-nil.  Error out on directories.

* lisp/vc/vc-dispatcher.el (vc-dispatcher-browsing): Check dired-mode
for derived-mode-p.
