When calling `git pack-redundant --all`, if there are too many local
packs and too many redundant objects within them, the too deep iteration
of `get_permutations` will exhaust all the resources, and the process of
`git pack-redundant` will be killed.

The following script could create a repository with too many redundant
packs, and running `git pack-redundant --all` in the `test.git` repo
will die soon.

    #!/bin/sh

    repo="$(pwd)/test.git"
    work="$(pwd)/test"
    i=1
    max=199

    if test -d "$repo" || test -d "$work"; then
    	echo >&2 "ERROR: '$repo' or '$work' already exist"
    	exit 1
    fi

    git init -q --bare "$repo"
    git --git-dir="$repo" config gc.auto 0
    git --git-dir="$repo" config transfer.unpackLimit 0
    git clone -q "$repo" "$work" 2>/dev/null

    while :; do
        cd "$work"
        echo "loop $i: $(date +%s)" >$i
        git add $i
        git commit -q -sm "loop $i"
        git push -q origin HEAD:master
        printf "\rCreate pack %4d/%d\t" $i $max
        if test $i -ge $max; then break; fi

        cd "$repo"
        git repack -q
        if test $(($i % 2)) -eq 0; then
            git repack -aq
            pack=$(ls -t $repo/objects/pack/*.pack | head -1)
            touch "${pack%.pack}.keep"
        fi
        i=$((i+1))
    done
    printf "\ndone\n"

To get the `min` unique pack list, we can replace the iteration in
`minimize` function with a new algorithm, and this could solve this
issue:

1. Get the unique and non_uniqe packs, add the unique packs to the
   `min` list.

2. Remove the objects of unique packs from non_unique packs, then each
   object left in the non_unique packs will have at least two copies.

3. Sort the non_unique packs by the objects' size, more objects first,
   and add the first non_unique pack to `min` list.

4. Drop the duplicated objects from other packs in the ordered
   non_unique pack list, and repeat step 3.

Some test cases will fail on Mac OS X. Mark them and will resolve in
later commit.

Build each step of the series with "make DEVELOPER=YesPlease" and
your compiler hopefully would notice...

These unused code are deleted in another, and will be squashed to
previous patch in next reroll.
