GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY and GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES can
have the "pack" subdirectory that houses "packed GIT" files
produced by git-pack-objects (e.g. .git/objects/pack/foo.pack
and .git/objects/pack/foo.idx; always store them as pairs). The
following functions in sha1_file.c can then read object contents
from such packed file:
- sha1_object_info()
- has_sha1_file()
- read_sha1_file()

This finishes the initial round of git-pack-object /
git-unpack-object pair. They are now good enough to be used as
a transport medium:
- Fix delta direction in pack-objects; the original was
computing delta to create the base object from the object to
be squashed, which was quite unfriendly for unpacker ;-).
- Add a script to test the very basics.
- Implement unpacker for both regular and deltified objects.
