As announced for 1.6.0.
Git older than version 1.5.2 (or any other git version with this option
set to 1) may revert to version 1 of the pack index by manually deleting
all .idx files and recreating them using 'git index-pack'. Communication
over the git native protocol is unaffected since the pack index is never
transferred.

This means that we can depend on packs always being stable on disk,
simplifying a lot of the object serialization worries. And unlike loose
objects, serializing pack creation IO isn't going to be a performance
killer.

pack-objects: no delta possible with only one object in the list
cope with multiple line breaks within sideband progress messages
more compact progress display
Two functions, namely write_idx_file() and open_pack_file(), currently
return a const pointer. However that pointer is either a copy of the
first argument, or set to a malloc'd buffer when that first argument
is null. In the later case it is wrong to qualify that pointer as const
since ownership of the buffer is transferred to the caller to dispose of,
and obviously the free() function is not meant to be passed const
pointers.
Making the return pointer not const causes a warning when the first
argument is returned since that argument is also marked const.
The correct thing to do is therefore to remove the const qualifiers,
avoiding the need for ugly casts only to silence some warnings.

There is a subtle (but important) linkage between receive-pack and
index-pack that allows index-pack to create a packfile but protect
it from being deleted by a concurrent `git repack -a -d` operation.
The linkage works by having index-pack mark the newly created pack
with a ".keep" file and then it passes the SHA-1 name of that new
packfile to receive-pack along its stdout channel.
The receive-pack process must unkeep the packfile by deleting the
.keep file, but can it can only do so after all elgible refs have
been updated in the receiving repository. This ensures that the
packfile is either kept or its objects are reachable, preventing
a concurrent repacker from deleting the packfile before it can
determine that its objects are actually needed by the repository.
The new builtin-fetch code needs to perform the same actions if
it choose to run index-pack rather than unpack-objects, so I am
moving this code out to its own function where both receive-pack
and fetch-pack are able to invoke it when necessary. The caller
is responsible for deleting the returned ".keep" and freeing the
path if the returned path is not NULL.

This patch unifies the write_index_file functions in
builtin-pack-objects.c and index-pack.c. As the name
"index" is overloaded in git, move in the direction of
using "idx" and "pack idx" when refering to the pack index.
There should be no change in functionality.

The return value from xread() is ssize_t.
Paolo Teti <paolo.teti@gmail.com> pointed out that in this case, the
signed return value was assigned to an unsigned type (size_t). This patch
fixes that.

Include a generalized fixup_pack_header_footer() in this new file.
Needed by git-repack --max-pack-size feature in a later patchset.
[sp: Moved close(pack_fd) to callers, to support index-pack, and
changed name to better indicate it is for packfiles.]
