Noted. To be fixed.

The second patch makes the total saving 119MB, close to 30% (again on
x86-64, 32-bit platform number may be different). If we only compare
with the size of objects[] and deltas[], the saving percentage is 37%
(only for clone case) for this repo. Now it looks impressive to me :-D

The patch is larger than the previous one, but not really complex. And
the final index-pack.c is not hard to read either, probably becase we
already handle ofs-delta and ref-delta separately.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] index-pack: kill union delta_base to save memory

Once we know the number of objects in the input pack, we allocate an
array of nr_objects of struct delta_entry. On x86-64, this struct is
32 bytes long. The union delta_base, which is part of struct
delta_entry, provides enough space to store either ofs-delta (8 bytes)
or ref-delta (20 bytes).

Notice that with "recent" Git versions, ofs-delta objects are
preferred over ref-delta objects and ref-delta objects have no reason
to be present in a clone pack. So in clone case we waste
(20-8) * nr_objects bytes because of this union. That's about 38MB out
of 100MB for deltas[] with 3.4M objects, or 38%. deltas[] would be
around 62MB without the waste.

This patch attempts to eliminate that. deltas[] array is split into
two: one for ofs-delta and one for ref-delta. Many functions are also
duplicated because of this split. With this patch, ofs_delta_entry[]
array takes 38MB. ref_deltas[] should remain unallocated in clone case
(0 bytes). This array grows as we see ref-delta. We save more than
half in clone case, or 25% of total book keeping.

The saving is more than the calculation above because padding is
removed by __attribute__((packed)) on ofs_delta_entry. This attribute
should be ok to use, as we used to have it in our code base for some
time. The last use was removed because it may lead to incorrect
behavior when the struct is not packed, which is not the case in
index-pack.

A note about ofs_deltas allocation. We could use ref_deltas memory
allocation strategy for ofs_deltas. But that probably just adds more
overhead on top. ofs-deltas are generally the majority (1/2 to 2/3) in
any pack. Incremental realloc may lead to too many memcpy. And if we
preallocate, say 1/2 or 2/3 of nr_objects initially, the growth rate
of ALLOC_GROW() could make this array larger than nr_objects, wasting
more memory.
