Only repack active packs by skipping over kept packs.
During `git repack -a -d` only repack objects which are loose or
which reside in an active (a non-kept) pack. This allows the user
to keep large packs as-is without continuous repacking and can be
very helpful on large repositories. It should also help us resolve
a race condition between `git repack -a -d` and the new pack store
functionality in `git-receive-pack`.
Kept packs are those which have a corresponding .keep file in
$GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY/pack. That is pack-X.pack will be kept
(not repacked and not deleted) if pack-X.keep exists in the same
directory when `git repack -a -d` starts.
Currently this feature is not documented and there is no user
interface to keep an existing pack.
