The three most common ways of making large packfiles
are git-fast-import, the first git-repack, or git-repack -a.
The first already supports a "--max-pack-size=N" option,
which limits the resulting packfiles to N megabytes.
This patchset adds the same option, with the same
behavior, to git-repack to handle the other two cases.

This iteration fixes the most recent issues,
including operation without implying -f/--no-reuse-delta.
