[PATCH 7/8] packfile: stop using linked MIDX list in `get_all_packs()`

From

Refactor `get_all_packs()` so that we stop using the linked list of multi-pack indices. Note that there is no need to explicitly prepare alternates, and neither do we have to use `get_multi_pack_index()`, because `prepare_packed_git()` already takes care of populating all data structures for us.
