[PATCH v2 7/8] fetch: after repair, encourage auto gc repacking

From

Message-ID
<2338c15249a3a58032bc1f8b0cd029f3897b4e88.1645719219.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To
<pull.1138.v2.git.1645719218.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Robert Coup <robert@coup.net.nz>

After invoking `fetch --repair`, the object db will likely contain many duplicate objects. If auto-maintenance is enabled, invoke it with appropriate settings to encourage repacking/consolidation.

* gc.autoPackLimit: unless this is set to 0 (disabled), override the
  value to 1 to force pack consolidation.
* maintenance.incremental-repack.auto: unless this is set to 0, override
  the value to -1 to force incremental repacking.
