pack-objects: add GIT_TEST_NAME_HASH_VERSION

Add a new environment variable to opt-in to different values of the
--name-hash-version=<n> option in 'git pack-objects'. This allows for
extra testing of the feature without repeating all of the test
scenarios. Unlike many GIT_TEST_* variables, we are choosing to not add
this to the linux-TEST-vars CI build as that test run is already
overloaded. The behavior exposed by this test variable is of low risk
and should be sufficient to allow manual testing when an issue arises.

But this option isn't free. There are a few tests that change behavior
with the variable enabled.

First, there are a few tests that are very sensitive to certain delta
bases being picked. These are both involving the generation of thin
bundles and then counting their objects via 'git index-pack --fix-thin'
which pulls the delta base into the new packfile. For these tests,
disable the option as a decent long-term option.

Second, there are some tests that compare the exact output of a 'git
pack-objects' process when using bitmaps. The warning that ignores the
--name-hash-version=2 and forces version 1 causes these tests to fail.
Disable the environment variable to get around this issue.
