Currently, we always read packed-refs file when 'trustFolderStat'
is false. Introduce a new config 'trustPackedRefsStat' which takes
precedence over 'trustFolderStat' when reading packed refs. Possible
values for this new config are:
* always: Trust packed-refs file attributes
* after_open: Same as 'always', but refresh the file attributes of
packed-refs before trusting it
* never: Always read the packed-refs file
* unset: Fallback to 'trustFolderStat' to determine if the file
attributes of packed-refs can be trusted
Folks whose repositories are on NFS and have traditionally been
setting 'trustFolderStat=false' can now get some performance improvement
with 'trustPackedRefsStat=after_open' as it refreshes the file
attributes of packed-refs (at least on some NFS clients) before
considering it.
For example, consider a repository on NFS with ~500k packed-refs. Here
are some stats which illustrate the improvement with this new config
when reading packed refs on NFS:
trustFolderStat=true trustPackedRefsStat=unset: 0.2ms
trustFolderStat=false trustPackedRefsStat=unset: 155ms
trustFolderStat=false trustPackedRefsStat=after_open: 1.5ms
