I think we do want the v1 path to use upload_pack_data in the long run,
just to keep things less confusing.

But if you don't want to go that far now, I'd strongly prefer the second
option, pushing v2 towards how we ultimately want it to look, and
plumbing a local variable through v1 paths as necessary. Or perhaps just
renaming the global to filter_options_v1 or something, so that v2 code
paths aren't tempted to use it.
