The previous commit changed the behavior of repack's '--max-cruft-size'
to specify a cruft pack-specific override for '--max-pack-size'.
Introduce a new flag, '--combine-cruft-below-size' which is a
replacement for the old behavior of '--max-cruft-size'. This new flag
does explicitly what it says: it combines together cruft packs which are
smaller than a given threshold, and prohibits repacking ones which are
larger.
This accomplishes the original intent of '--max-cruft-size', which was
to avoid repacking cruft packs larger than the given threshold.
The new behavior is slightly different. Instead of building up small
packs together until the threshold is met, '--combine-cruft-below-size'
packs up *all* cruft packs smaller than the threshold. This means that
we may make a pack much larger than the given threshold (e.g., if you
aggregate 5 packs which are each 99 MiB in size with a threshold of 100
MiB).
But that's OK: the point isn't to restrict the size of the cruft packs
we generate, it's to avoid working with ones that have already grown too
large. If repositories still want to limit the size of the generated
cruft pack(s), they may use '--max-cruft-size' instead.
There's some minor test fallout as a result of the slight differences in
behavior between the old meaning of '--max-cruft-size' and the behavior
of '--combine-cruft-below-size'. In the test which is now called
"--combine-cruft-below-size combines packs", we need to use the new flag
over the old one to exercise that test's intended behavior. The
remainder of the changes there are to improve the clarity of the
comments.
