packfile: actually set approximate_object_count_valid

The approximate_object_count() function tries to compute the count only
once per process. But ever since it was introduced in 8e3f52d778
(find_unique_abbrev: move logic out of get_short_sha1(), 2016-10-03), we
failed to actually set the "valid" flag, meaning we'd compute it fresh
on every call.

This turns out not to be _too_ bad, because we're only iterating through
the packed_git list, and not making any system calls. But since it may
get called for every abbreviated hash we output, even this can add up if
you have many packs.

Here are before-and-after timings for a new perf test which just asks
rev-list to abbreviate each commit hash (the test repo is linux.git,
with commit-graphs):

  Test                            origin              HEAD
  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  5303.3: rev-list (1)            28.91(28.46+0.44)   29.03(28.65+0.38) +0.4%
  5303.4: abbrev-commit (1)       1.18(1.06+0.11)     1.17(1.02+0.14) -0.8%
  5303.7: rev-list (50)           28.95(28.56+0.38)   29.50(29.17+0.32) +1.9%
  5303.8: abbrev-commit (50)      3.67(3.56+0.10)     3.57(3.42+0.15) -2.7%
  5303.11: rev-list (1000)        30.34(29.89+0.43)   30.82(30.35+0.46) +1.6%
  5303.12: abbrev-commit (1000)   86.82(86.52+0.29)   77.82(77.59+0.22) -10.4%
  5303.15: load 10,000 packs      0.08(0.02+0.05)     0.08(0.02+0.06) +0.0%

It doesn't help at all when we have 1 pack (5303.4), but we get a 10%
speedup when there are 1000 packs (5303.12). That's a modest speedup for
a case that's already slow and we'd hope to avoid in general (note how
slow it is even after, because we have to look in each of those packs
for abbreviations). But it's a one-line change that clearly matches the
original intent, so it seems worth doing.

The included perf test may also be useful for keeping an eye on any
regressions in the overall abbreviation code.
