Got it.

I initially considered adding another option VERIFY_BUNDLE_FSCK_ALWAYS
for other scenarios, which would take a higher priority than
VERIFY_BUNDLE_FSCK_FOLLOW_FETCH. However, that approach is also
confusing, as we would have two flags both controlling the fsck
behavior.

How about extending VERIFY_BUNDLE_FSCK and letting the callers decide
whether to add the flag for fscking?

In bundle.c, we can make a small change like:

 	if (extra_index_pack_args) {
 		strvec_pushv(&ip.args, extra_index_pack_args->v);
 		strvec_clear(extra_index_pack_args);

For example, in `bundle-uri.c:unbundle_from_file`, which is one of the
callers of unbundle, we can use `fetch_pack_fsck_objects` to decide
whether to add that option:

+			       VERIFY_BUNDLE_QUIET | (fetch_pack_fsck_objects() ? VERIFY_BUNDLE_FSCK : 0))))
 		return 1;

This approach should streamline the code while maintaining flexibility.
The follow-up patch you mentioned below should just work then, it is not
for now because we are touching the unwanted `fetch_pack_fsck_objects`
within `unbundle`.
