(This commit log message is designed to replace the previous one when patch text is squashed into the previous one). Traditionally, "git fsck" only checked loose objects and "git fsck --full" checked both loose and packed objects fully. This introduces a new medium level of validation that checks loose objects and runs the quicker packfile validation introduced earlier (in other words, the individual objects in packfiles are not validated, but we still make sure that the packfiles themselves are sound and individual objects pass their own CRC checks when the pack has version 2 idx file). I hoped that the new "medium" level to give a cursory look at the pack data would be acceptable as the default, but given the benchmark data, I think it is a bit too slow to be the default. So you pass --medium to trigger this new mode, instead of --full.
