Merge branch 'nd/pack-objects-pack-struct'
"git pack-objects" needs to allocate tons of "struct object_entry" while doing its work, and shrinking its size helps the performance quite a bit. * nd/pack-objects-pack-struct: ci: exercise the whole test suite with uncommon code in pack-objects pack-objects: reorder members to shrink struct object_entry pack-objects: shrink delta_size field in struct object_entry pack-objects: shrink size field in struct object_entry pack-objects: clarify the use of object_entry::size pack-objects: don't check size when the object is bad pack-objects: shrink z_delta_size field in struct object_entry pack-objects: refer to delta objects by index instead of pointer pack-objects: move in_pack out of struct object_entry pack-objects: move in_pack_pos out of struct object_entry pack-objects: use bitfield for object_entry::depth pack-objects: use bitfield for object_entry::dfs_state pack-objects: turn type and in_pack_type to bitfields pack-objects: a bit of document about struct object_entry read-cache.c: make $GIT_TEST_SPLIT_INDEX boolean

affects the performance on the unpacker side, because delta data needs
to be applied that many times to get to the necessary object.
