[PATCH 08/11] midx-write.c: avoid directly managed temporary strbuf

In midx-write.c::midx_repack(), we construct the command-line arguments for a pack-objects invocation which will combine objects from the packs below our `--batch-size` option.

To construct the base name of the output pack, we use a temporary strbuf, and then push the result of that onto the strvec which holds the command-line arguments, after which point we release the strbuf.

We could replace this by doing something like:
    struct strbuf buf = STRBUF_INIT;
    strbuf_addf(&buf, "%s/pack/pack", object_dir);
    strvec_push_nodup(&cmd.args, strbuf_detach(&buf));

(combining the two separate `strbuf_addstr()` calls into a single `strbuf_addf()`). But that is more or less an open-coded version of strvec_pushf(), which we could use directly instead.

(Note that at the time this code was written back in ce1e4a105b4 (midx: implement midx_repack(), 2019-06-10), strvec did not yet exist, so the above example would have replaced the last line with:

    argv_array_push_nodup(&cmd.args, strbuf_detach(&buf));
, but the code is otherwise unchanged).

Avoid directly managing the temporary strbuf used to construct the base name for pack-object's command-line arguments, and instead use the purpose-built `strvec_pushf()` instead.
