for_each_packed_object: support iterating in pack-order

We currently iterate over objects within a pack in .idx
order, which uses the object hashes. That means that it
is effectively random with respect to the location of the
object within the pack. If you're going to access the actual
object data, there are two reasons to move linearly through
the pack itself:

  1. It improves the locality of access in the packfile. In
     the cold-cache case, this may mean fewer disk seeks, or
     better usage of disk cache.

  2. We store related deltas together in the packfile. Which
     means that the delta base cache can operate much more
     efficiently if we visit all of those related deltas in
     sequence, as the earlier items are likely to still be
     in the cache.  Whereas if we visit the objects in
     random order, our cache entries are much more likely to
     have been evicted by unrelated deltas in the meantime.

So in general, if you're going to access the object contents
pack order is generally going to end up more efficient.

But if you're simply generating a list of object names, or
if you're going to end up sorting the result anyway, you're
better off just using the .idx order, as finding the pack
order means generating the in-memory pack-revindex.
According to the numbers in 8b8dfd5132 (pack-revindex:
radix-sort the revindex, 2013-07-11), that takes about 200ms
for linux.git, and 20ms for git.git (those numbers are a few
years old but are still a good ballpark).

That makes it a good optimization for some cases (we can
save tens of seconds in git.git by having good locality of
delta access, for a 20ms cost), but a bad one for others
(e.g., right now "cat-file --batch-all-objects
--batch-check="%(objectname)" is 170ms in git.git, so adding
20ms to that is noticeable).

Hence this patch makes it an optional flag. You can't
actually do any interesting timings yet, as it's not plumbed
through to any user-facing tools like cat-file. That will
come in a later patch.
