repack: simplify handling of auto-bitmaps and .keep files

Commit 7328482 (repack: disable bitmaps-by-default if .keep files
exist, 2019-06-29) taught repack to prefer disabling bitmaps to
duplicating objects (unless bitmaps were asked for explicitly).

But there's an easier way to do this: if we keep passing the
--honor-pack-keep flag to pack-objects when auto-enabling bitmaps, then
pack-objects already makes the same decision (it will disable bitmaps
rather than duplicate). Better still, pack-objects can actually decide
to do so based not just on the presence of a .keep file, but on whether
that .keep file actually impacts the new pack we're making (so if we're
racing with a push or fetch, for example, their temporary .keep file
will not block us from generating bitmaps if they haven't yet updated
their refs).

And because repack uses the --write-bitmap-index-quiet flag, we don't
have to worry about pack-objects generating confusing warnings when it
does see a .keep file. We can confirm this by tweaking the .keep test to
check repack's stderr.
