Re: [PATCH v3 5/9] pack-objects: perform name-hash traversal for unpacked objects

> With '--unpacked', pack-objects adds loose objects (which don't appear
> in any of the excluded packs from '--stdin-packs') to the output pack
> without considering them as reachability tips for the name-hash
> traversal.
>
> This was an oversight in the original implementation of '--stdin-packs',
> since the code which enumerates and adds loose objects to the output
> pack (`add_unreachable_loose_objects()`) did not have access to the
> 'rev_info' struct found in `read_packs_list_from_stdin()`.
>
> Excluding unpacked objects from that traversal doesn't affect the
> correctness of the resulting pack, but it does make it harder to
> discover good deltas for loose objects.
>
> Now that the 'rev_info' struct is declared outside of
> `read_packs_list_from_stdin()`, we can pass it to
> `add_objects_in_unpacked_packs()` and add any loose objects as tips to
> the above-mentioned traversal, in theory producing slightly tighter
> packs as a result.
