Documentation/gitpacking.txt: initial commit
Introduce a new manual page, gitpacking(7) to collect useful information
about advanced packing concepts in Git.
In future commits in this series, this manual page will expand to
describe the new pseudo-merge bitmaps feature, as well as include
examples, relevant configuration bits, use-cases, and so on.
Outside of this series, this manual page may absorb similar pieces from
other parts of Git's documentation about packing.
