Having now looked at the callers through the series, I think adding an
error return to pack_pos_to_index() would be really awkward (since it
cannot currently fail).
We _could_ insist that callers of offset_to_pack_pos() also make sure
the revindex is loaded themselves. But it would be annoying and
error-prone to check the existing callers. So I'm OK with leaving this
asymmetry in the API.
