not to explode the pack, and store it in objects/pack instead.

Do not name it /lost+found/; that would probably confuse
- things that incorrectly assumes that is a mount point (not our

* Make rebase restartable; instead of skipping what cannot be
automatically forward ported, leave the conflicts in the work
tree, have the user resolve it, and then restart from where it
left off.
