[PATCH v2 6/6] bundle: generate packfiles via the object database

git-bundle(1) spawns git-pack-objects(1) directly to generate the pack data that gets appended to the bundle header. While bundles are not part of the wire protocol, they are a transfer mechanism for packs all the same, so convert them to use the pack generation interface of the object database as well. This makes the pack generator the single spawn point for all pack streams that leave the repository, leaving only local maintenance tasks like git-repack(1) with direct knowledge of git-pack-objects(1).
