[PATCH 3/7] midx.c: prevent `expire` from removing the cruft pack

[Taylor Blau <me@ttaylorr.com>]

The `expire` sub-command unlinks any packs that are (a) contained in the
MIDX, but (b) have no objects referenced by the MIDX.

This sub-command ignores `.keep` packs, which remain on-disk even if
they have no objects referenced by the MIDX. Cruft packs, however,
aren't given the same treatment: if none of the objects contained in the
cruft pack are selected from the cruft pack by the MIDX, then the cruft
pack is eligible to be expired.

This is less than desireable, since the cruft pack has important
metadata about the individual object mtimes, which is useful to
determine how quickly an object should age out of the repository when
pruning.

Ordinarily, we wouldn't expect the contents of a cruft pack to
duplicated across non-cruft packs (and we'd expect to see the MIDX
select all cruft objects from other sources even less often). But
nonetheless, it is still possible to trick the `expire` sub-command into
removing the `.mtimes` file in this circumstance.

Teach the `expire` sub-command to ignore cruft packs in the same manner
as it does `.keep` packs, in order to keep their metadata around, even
when they are unreferenced by the MIDX.
