[PATCH 0/9] packfile: avoid .idx rename races

[Taylor Blau <me@ttaylorr.com>]

This series is a unification of [1] and [2] which together prevent a handful of
races when code that writes packfiles moves the `.idx` into place before all
other auxiliary files are properly renamed.

This can lead to races like not reading the `.rev` file even if one was
generated and is about to be moved into place.

Credit goes to Ævar for preparing what is more-or-less sent here. I polished a
few of the commit messages, and added the second patch on top of his result. It
isn't necessary, but felt like good hygiene when I was reading the surrounding
code.

Thanks in advance for reviewing.
