builtin/repack.c: ensure that names is sorted

The previous patch demonstrates a scenario where the list of packs
written by `pack-objects` (and stored in the `names` string_list) is
out-of-order, and can thus cause us to delete packs we shouldn't.

This patch resolves that bug by ensuring that `names` is sorted in all
cases, not just when

    delete_redundant && pack_everything & ALL_INTO_ONE

is true.

Because we did sort `names` in that case (which, prior to `--geometric`
repacks, was the only time we would actually delete packs, this is only
a bug for `--geometric` repacks.

It would be sufficient to only sort `names` when `delete_redundant` is
set to a non-zero value. But sorting a small list of strings is cheap,
and it is defensive against future calls to `string_list_has_string()`
on this list.
