Was there an on-list v0 (RFC?) or is this a range-diff against nothing?
Best not to include it until a v2 then.

Comments:

Sometimes it's better to split up patches, but I think these 3x should
really be squashed together. We make incremental progress to nowhere in
1/3 and 2/3, and it all comes together in 3/3. The 1-2/3 are trivial
enough that we can squash them in.

We then end up with this, with my comments added:

Weird indentation here.

Also, if we think it's a good idea to log these shouldn't it be in
repo_cfg_bool() in repo-settings.c, why is core.multipackIndex out of
all in r->settings special?

It seems odd not to use trace2 regions for this, and to not add add this
data logging open_bitmap(). I came up with this on top of this when
testing this:

I.e. surely you just want to create a region, and if you care enough to
log failure shouldn't we log that in open_midx_bitmap_1() if we care,
and perhaps error() there instead of silently returning -1?
