Teach git-index-pack how to keep a pack file.

Browse Source 
To prevent a race condition between `index-pack --stdin` and
`repack -a -d` where the repack deletes the newly created pack
file before any refs are updated to reference objects contained
within it we mark the pack file as one that should be kept.  This
removes it from the list of packs that `repack -a -d` will consider
for removal.

Callers such as `receive-pack` which want to invoke `index-pack`
should use this new --keep option to prevent the newly created pack
and index file pair from being deleted before they have finished any
related ref updates.  Only after all ref updates have been finished
should the associated .keep file be removed.

--keep::
Before moving the index into its final destination
create an empty .keep file for the associated pack file.
This option is usually necessary with --stdin to prevent a
simultaneous gitlink:git-repack[1] process from deleting
the newly constructed pack and index before refs can be
updated to use objects contained in the pack.
--keep='why'::
Like --keep create a .keep file before moving the index into
its final destination, but rather than creating an empty file
place 'why' followed by an LF into the .keep file. The 'why'
message can later be searched for within all .keep files to
locate any which have outlived their usefulness.
