git-bundle(1) spawns git-pack-objects(1) directly to generate the pack

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.
Just to clarify, so the intent here is that git-bundle(1) can be used
one a repository using a different ODB backend and still generate a
bundle correct? The bundle would still ultimately use a packfile as the
common language format though.
