[PATCH 13/16] packfile: move `get_multi_pack_index()` into "midx.c"

In-Reply-To
<20250819-b4-pks-packfiles-store-v1-0-1660842e125a@pks.im>

The `get_multi_pack_index()` function is declared and implemented in the packfile subsystem, even though it really belongs into the multi-pack index subsystem. The reason for this is likely that it needs to call `packfile_store_prepare()`, which is not exposed by the packfile system. In a subsequent commit we're about to add another caller outside of the packfile system though, so we'll have to expose the function anyway.

Do so now already and move `get_multi_pack_index()` into the MIDX subsystem.
