builtin/gc.c: ignore cruft packs with --keep-largest-pack
When cruft packs were implemented, we never adjusted the code for `git gc`'s `--keep-largest-pack` and `gc.bigPackThreshold` to ignore cruft packs. This option and configuration option share a common implementation, but including cruft packs is wrong in both cases: - Running `git gc --keep-largest-pack` in a repository where the largest pack is the cruft pack itself will make it impossible for `git gc` to prune objects, since the cruft pack itself is kept. - The same is true for `gc.bigPackThreshold`, if the size of the cruft pack exceeds the limit set by the caller. In the future, it is possible that `gc.bigPackThreshold` could be used to write a separate cruft pack containing any new unreachable objects that entered the repository since the last time a cruft pack was written. There are some complexities to doing so, mainly around handling pruning objects that are in an existing cruft pack that is above the threshold (which would either need to be rewritten, or else delay pruning). Rewriting a substantially similar cruft pack isn't ideal, but it is significantly better than the status-quo. If users have large cruft packs that they don't want to rewrite, they can mark them as `*.keep` packs. But in general, if a repository has a cruft pack that is so large it is slowing down GC's, it should probably be pruned anyway. In the meantime, ignore cruft packs in the common implementation for both of these options, and add a pair of tests to prevent any future regressions here.
