Now that we have properly factored the portion of the builtin which is
responsible for repacking promisor objects, we can move that function
(and associated dependencies) out of the builtin entirely.
Similar to previous extractions, this function is declared in repack.h,
but implemented in a separate repack-promisor.c file. This is done to
separate promisor-specific repacking functionality from generic repack
utilities (like "existing_packs", and "generated_pack" APIs).

Now that we have factored the "generated_pack" API, we can move it to
repack.ch, further slimming down builtin/repack.c.

The repack builtin defines an API for keeping track of which packs
were found in the repository at the beginning of the repack operation.
This is used to classify what state a pack was in (kept, non-kept, or
cruft), and is also used to mark which packs to delete (or keep) at the
end of a repack operation.
Now that the prerequisite refactoring is complete, this API is isolated
enough that it can be moved out to repack.[ch] and removed from the
builtin entirely.
As a result, some of its functions become static within repack.c,
cleaning up the visible API.

Extract "remove_redundant_pack()" as generic repack-related
functionality by moving its implementation to the repack.[ch]
compilation unit.
This is a prerequisite to moving the "existing_packs" API, which is one
of the callers of this function. (The remaining caller in the pack
geometry code will eventually move to its own compilation unit as well,
and will likewise rely on this function.)
While moving it over, prefix the function name with "repack_" to
indicate that it belongs to the repack-subsystem.

Now that the 'prepare_pack_objects' function no longer refers to
external, static variables, move it out to repack.h as generic
functionality.

The static variable 'delta_base_offset' determines whether or not we
pass the "--delta-base-offset" command-line argument when spawning
pack-objects as a child process. Its introduction dates back to when
repack was rewritten in C, all the way back in a1bbc6c017 (repack:
rewrite the shell script in C, 2013-09-15).
'struct pack_objects_args' was introduced much later on in 4571324b99
(builtin/repack.c: allow configuring cruft pack generation, 2022-05-20),
but did not move the 'delta_base_offset' variable.
Since the 'delta_base_offset' is a property of an individual
pack-objects command, re-introduce that variable as a member of 'struct
pack_objects_args', which will enable further code movement in the
subsequent commits.

Over the years, builtin/repack.c has turned into a grab-bag of
functionality powering the 'git repack' builtin. Among its many
capabilities, it:
- can build and spawn 'git pack-objects' commands, which in turn
generate new packs
- has infrastructure to manage the set of existing packs in a
repository
- has infrastructure to split a sequence of packs into a geometric
progression based on object size
- can manage both generating and combining cruft packs together
- can write new MIDXs
to name a few.
As a result, this builtin has accumulated a lot of code, making adding
new functionality difficult. In the future, 'repack' will learn how to
manage a chain of incremental MIDXs, adding yet more functionality into
the builtin.
As a prerequisite step, let's first move some of the functionality in
the builtin into its own repack.[ch].
This will be done over the course of many steps, since there are many
individual components, some of which will end up in other, yet-to-exist
compilation units of their own. Some of the code movement here is also
non-trivial, so performing it in individual steps will make it easier to
verify.
Let's start by migrating 'struct pack_objects_args' (and the related
corresponding pack_objects_args_release() function) into repack.h, and
teach both the Makefile and Meson how to build the new compilation unit.
