OK.

I suspect the whole thing can just be:

	git_config_get_bool("feature.experimental", &cruft_packs);

If there is no feature.experimental configuration, the call returns
non-zero (we do not check, though) without touching &cruft_packs, if
there is feature.experimental configuration, the call returns zero
(we do not check, though) and cruft_packs is set to either true
(when experimental) or false (otherwise).

And this whole thing happens before we inspect what the more
specific configuration gc.cruftPacks says, so...

OK.  

What is not tested is setting feature.experimental explicitly to
false without touching gc.cruftPacks does not use the cruft pack.
