<title>pack-objects: enable multi-pack reuse via `feature.experimental`</title>

<id>urn:sha1:23c1e71369f4a5a5e5b176d77cfc9d8edf68ebec</id>
<content type='text'>
Now that multi-pack reuse is supported, enable it via the
feature.experimental configuration in addition to the classic
`pack.allowPackReuse`.

This will allow more users to experiment with the new behavior who might
not otherwise be aware of the existing `pack.allowPackReuse`
configuration option.

The enum with values NO_PACK_REUSE, SINGLE_PACK_REUSE, and
MULTI_PACK_REUSE is defined statically in builtin/pack-objects.c's
compilation unit. We could hoist that enum into a scope visible from the
repository_settings struct, and then use that enum value in
pack-objects. Instead, define a single int that indicates what
pack-objects's default value should be to avoid additional unnecessary
code movement.

Though `feature.experimental` implies `pack.allowPackReuse=multi`, this
can still be overridden by explicitly setting the latter configuration
to either "single" or "false". Tests covering all of these cases are
showin t5332.

Each of these were checked with
   gcc -E -I. ${SOURCE_FILE} | grep ${HEADER_FILE}
to ensure that removing the direct inclusion of the header actually
resulted in that header no longer being included at all (i.e. that
no other header pulled it in transitively).

...except for a few cases where we verified that although the header
was brought in transitively, nothing from it was directly used in
that source file.  These cases were:
  * builtin/credential-cache.c
  * builtin/pull.c
  * builtin/send-pack.c

<content type='text'>
Now that both the pack-bitmap and pack-objects code are prepared to
handle marking and using objects from multiple bitmapped packs for
verbatim reuse, allow marking objects from all bitmapped packs as
eligible for reuse.

Within the `reuse_partial_packfile_from_bitmap()` function, we no longer
only mark the pack whose first object is at bit position zero for reuse,
and instead mark any pack contained in the MIDX as a reuse candidate.

Provide a handful of test cases in a new script (t5332) exercising
interesting behavior for multi-pack reuse to ensure that we performed
all of the previous steps correctly.

<title>pack-objects: allow setting `pack.allowPackReuse` to "single"</title>

<id>urn:sha1:941074134cefe49fd7dc894665f1eb9804e06cf8</id>
<content type='text'>
In e704fc7978 (pack-objects: introduce pack.allowPackReuse, 2019-12-18),
the `pack.allowPackReuse` configuration option was introduced, allowing
users to disable the pack reuse mechanism.

To prepare for debugging multi-pack reuse, allow setting configuration
to "single" in addition to the usual bool-or-int values.

"single" implies the same behavior as "true", "1", "yes", and so on. But
it will complement a new "multi" value (to be introduced in a future
commit). When set to "single", we will only perform pack reuse on a
single pack, regardless of whether or not there are multiple MIDX'd
packs.

This requires no code changes (yet), since we only support single pack
reuse.

As part of the multi-pack reuse effort, we will want to add some tests
that assert that we reused a certain number of objects from a certain
number of packs.

We could do this by grepping through the stderr output of
`pack-objects`, but doing so would be brittle in case the output format
changed.

Instead, let's use the trace2 mechanism to log various pieces of
information about the generated packfile, which we can then use to
compare against desired values.

<title>pack-objects: prepare `write_reused_pack_verbatim()` for multi-pack reuse</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.shady.money/git/commit/?id=ca0fd69e37132acdddc457b96a91ef528c7c312b'/>
<id>urn:sha1:ca0fd69e37132acdddc457b96a91ef528c7c312b</id>
<content type='text'>
The function `write_reused_pack_verbatim()` within
`builtin/pack-objects.c` is responsible for writing out a continuous
set of objects beginning at the start of the reuse packfile.

In the existing implementation, we did something like:

    while (pos &lt; reuse_packfile_bitmap-&gt;word_alloc &amp;&amp;
           reuse_packfile_bitmap-&gt;words[pos] == (eword_t)~0)
      pos++;

    if (pos)
      /* write first `pos * BITS_IN_WORD` objects from pack */

as an optimization to record a single chunk for the longest continuous
prefix of objects wanted out of the reuse pack, instead of having a
chunk for each individual object. For more details, see bb514de356
(pack-objects: improve partial packfile reuse, 2019-12-18).

In order to retain this optimization in a multi-pack reuse world, we can
no longer assume that the first object in a pack is on a word boundary
in the bitmap storing the set of reusable objects.

Assuming that all objects from the beginning of the reuse packfile up to
the object corresponding to the first bit on a word boundary are part of
the result, consume whole words at a time until the last whole word
belonging to the reuse packfile. Copy those objects to the resulting
packfile, and track that we reused them by recording a single chunk.
