builtin/index-pack.c: allow stripping arbitrary extensions

To derive the filename for a .idx file, 'git index-pack' uses
derive_filename() to strip the '.pack' suffix and add the new suffix.

Prepare for stripping off suffixes other than '.pack' by making the
suffix to strip a parameter of derive_filename(). In order to make this
consistent with the "suffix" parameter which does not begin with a ".",
an additional check in derive_filename.
