[PATCH v3 08/11] Extract verify_pack_index for reuse from verify_pack

The dumb HTTP transport should verify an index is completely valid before trying to use it. That requires checking the header/footer but also checking the complete content SHA-1. All of this logic is already in the front half of verify_pack, so pull it out into a new function that can be reused.
