[PATCH v3 1/2] pack-objects: allow --filter without --stdout

[Christian Couder <christian.couder@gmail.com>]

From: Christian Couder <chriscool@tuxfamily.org>

9535ce7337 (pack-objects: add list-objects filtering, 2017-11-21)
taught pack-objects to use --filter, but required the use of
--stdout since a partial clone mechanism was not yet in place to
handle missing objects. Since then, changes like 9e27beaa23
(promisor-remote: implement promisor_remote_get_direct(), 2019-06-25)
and others added support to dynamically fetch objects that were missing.

Remove the --stdout requirement so that in a follow-up commit, repack
can pass --filter to pack-objects to omit certain objects from the
resulting packfile.
