Re: [PATCH v3 04/11] reftable/stack: verify that `reftable_stack_add()` uses auto-compaction

> While we have several tests that check whether we correctly perform
> auto-compaction when manually calling `reftable_stack_auto_compact()`,
> we don't have any tests that verify whether `reftable_stack_add()` does
> call it automatically. Add one.
