I thought had some kind of safe downcasting mechanism for iterators, but
I think I was just thinking of files_downcast() for the ref-store.

I don't mind not having that kind of safety. It seems like an uncommon
error to call the packed-ref iterator function on the wrong type,
especially as it's static here and only accessible as a virtual function
for a packed_ref_iterator.

But something to think about, I guess, as we add more polymorphism.
