[PATCH v4 00/16] midx: implement a multi-pack reverse index

Here is another reroll of my series to implement a reverse index in preparation for multi-pack reachability bitmaps.

This reroll differs only in the feedback I incorporated from Peff's review. They are mostly cosmetic; the most substantial change being that the --preferred-pack code now uses bsearch() to locate the name of the preferred pack (instead of implementing a binary search itself).

I think that this version is ready to go. I would hope that it can head for 'master' and avoid sitting in 'next' forever (since it has some worthwhile cleanups outside of preparing for MIDX bitmaps).

But in either case, this is the last prereq series before MIDX bitmaps, which I'll send shortly (based on this one).

    -    the same structure so that sub-commands can more easily share the
    -    'flags' data.
    +    Right now, options and flags are handled separately. That's fine, since
    +    the options structure is never passed around. But a future patch will
    +    make it so that common options shared by all sub-commands are defined in
    +    a common location. That means that "flags" would have to become a global
