Merge branch 'jc/pack'

* jc/pack:
  pack-objects: document --revs, --unpacked and --all.
  pack-objects --unpacked=<existing pack> option.
  pack-objects: further work on internal rev-list logic.
  pack-objects: run rev-list equivalent internally.
  Separate object listing routines out of rev-list
