pack: make packed_git_mru global a value instead of a pointer

The MRU cache that keeps track of recently used packs is represented
using two global variables:

	struct mru packed_git_mru_storage;
	struct mru *packed_git_mru = &packed_git_mru_storage;

Callers never assign to the packed_git_mru pointer, though, so we can
simplify by eliminating it and using &packed_git_mru_storage (renamed
to &packed_git_mru) directly.  This variable is only used by the
packfile subsystem, making this a relatively uninvasive change (and
any new unadapted callers would trigger a compile error).

Noticed while moving these globals to the object_store struct.
