When repacking into a geometric series and writing a multi-pack bitmap, it is beneficial to have the largest resulting pack be the preferred object source in the bitmap's MIDX, since selecting the large packs can lead to fewer broken delta chains and better compression.
Teach 'git repack' to identify this pack and pass it to the MIDX write machinery in order to mark it as preferred.
