gc: Add options to preserve and prune old pack files
The new --preserve-oldpacks option moves old pack files into the preserved subdirectory instead of deleting them after repacking. The new --prune-preserved option prunes old pack files from the preserved subdirectory after repacking, but before potentially moving the latest old packfiles to this subdirectory. These options are designed to prevent stale file handle exceptions during git operations which can happen on users of NFS repos when repacking is done on them. The strategy is to preserve old pack files around until the next repack with the hopes that they will become unreferenced by then and not cause any exceptions to running processes when they are finally deleted (pruned).
