gc/repack: release packs when needed
On Windows, files cannot be removed nor renamed if there are still handles held by a process. To remedy that, we introduced the close_all_packs() function. Earlier, we made sure that the packs are released just before `git gc` is spawned, in case that gc wants to remove no-longer needed packs. But this developer forgot that gc itself also needs to let go of packs, e.g. when consolidating all packs via the --aggressive option. Likewise, `git repack -d` wants to delete obsolete packs and therefore needs to close all pack handles, too.
