SZEDER reported that test case t5323 has different test result on MacOS.
This is because `cmp_pack_list_reverse` cannot give identical result
when two pack being sorted has the same size of remaining_objects.
Changes to the sorting function will make consistent test result for
t5323.
The new algorithm to find redundant packs is a trade-off to save memory
resources, and the result of it may be different with old one, and may
be not the best result sometimes. Update t5323 for the new algorithm.

When calling `git pack-redundant --all`, if there are too many local
packs and too many redundant objects within them, the too deep iteration
of `get_permutations` will exhaust all the resources, and the process of
`git pack-redundant` will be killed.
The following script could create a repository with too many redundant
packs, and running `git pack-redundant --all` in the `test.git` repo
will die soon.
#!/bin/sh
repo="$(pwd)/test.git"
work="$(pwd)/test"
i=1
max=199
if test -d "$repo" || test -d "$work"; then
echo >&2 "ERROR: '$repo' or '$work' already exist"
exit 1
fi
git init -q --bare "$repo"
git --git-dir="$repo" config gc.auto 0
git --git-dir="$repo" config transfer.unpackLimit 0
git clone -q "$repo" "$work" 2>/dev/null
while :; do
cd "$work"
echo "loop $i: $(date +%s)" >$i
git add $i
git commit -q -sm "loop $i"
git push -q origin HEAD:master
printf "\rCreate pack %4d/%d\t" $i $max
if test $i -ge $max; then break; fi
cd "$repo"
git repack -q
if test $(($i % 2)) -eq 0; then
git repack -aq
pack=$(ls -t $repo/objects/pack/*.pack | head -1)
touch "${pack%.pack}.keep"
fi
i=$((i+1))
done
printf "\ndone\n"
To get the `min` unique pack list, we can replace the iteration in
`minimize` function with a new algorithm, and this could solve this
issue:
1. Get the unique and non_uniqe packs, add the unique packs to the
`min` list.
2. Remove the objects of unique packs from non_unique packs, then each
object left in the non_unique packs will have at least two copies.
3. Sort the non_unique packs by the objects' size, more objects first,
and add the first non_unique pack to `min` list.
4. Drop the duplicated objects from other packs in the ordered
non_unique pack list, and repeat step 3.
Some test cases will fail on Mac OS X. Mark them and will resolve in
later commit.
