Just my two cents here: the reachability bitmaps are really tied to the
idea of a single pack right now. To create bitmaps, I would currently
suggest using the 'git repack' builtin with the proper options. That
command deletes the multi-pack-index, unfortunately, but it also produces
a single pack and deletes the others (when creating bitmaps).

You are right that the `--all` option required to pack-objects is not
appropriate to add inside `git multi-pack-index repack` as that changes
the pattern. It requires loading all reachable objects, even if they are
not already in packs covered by the multi-pack-index. This at minimum
violates expectations with the --batch-size argument.

Integrating reachability bitmaps more closely with the multi-pack-index
is certainly on our radar, but is a large endeavor.

This new patch looks good to me.

Thanks,
-Stolee
