make git-pack-objects able to create deltas with offset to base

This is enabled with --delta-base-offset only, and doesn't work with
pack data reuse yet.

The idea is to allow for the fetch protocol to use an extension flag
to notify the remote end that --delta-base-offset can be used with
git-pack-objects. Eventually git-repack will always provide this flag.

With this, all delta base objects are now pushed before deltas that depend
on them.  This is a requirements for OBJ_OFS_DELTA.  This is not a
requirement for OBJ_REF_DELTA but always doing so makes the code simpler.
