There are some cases in which repositories accrue a large number of packfiles. The existing mwindow limit applies only to the total size of mmap'd files, not on their number. This leads to a situation in which having lots of small packfiles could exhaust the allowed number of open files, particularly on macOS, where the default ulimit is very low (256). This change adds a new configuration parameter (GIT_OPT_SET_MWINDOW_FILE_LIMIT) that sets the maximum number of open packfiles, with a default of 128. This is low enough so that even macOS users should not hit it during normal use. Based on PR #5386, originally written by @josharian. Fixes: #2758
