[PATCH v5 2/3] reftable/stack: add env to disable autocompaction

["Justin Tobler via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>]

From: Justin Tobler <jltobler@gmail.com>

In future tests it will be neccesary to create repositories with a set
number of tables. To make this easier, introduce the
`GIT_TEST_REFTABLE_AUTOCOMPACTION` environment variable that, when set
to false, disables autocompaction of reftables.
