docs: move pack format docs to man section 5
Continue the move of existing Documentation/technical/* protocol and file-format documentation into our main documentation space by moving the various documentation pertaining to the *.pack format and related files, and updating things that refer to it to link to the new location. By moving these we can properly link from the newly created gitformat-commit-graph to a gitformat-chunk-format page. Integrating "Documentation/technical/bitmap-format.txt" and "Documentation/technical/cruft-packs.txt" might logically be part of this change, but as those cover parts of the wider "pack format" (including associated files) that's documented outside of "Documentation/technical/pack-format.txt" let's leave those for now, subsequent commit(s) will address those.

has the git packed object header, which is variable-length. We want to
strip that off so we can start playing with the zlib data directly. You
can either work your way through it manually (the format is described in
-link:../technical/pack-format.html[Documentation/technical/pack-format.txt]),
+linkgit:gitformat-pack[5]),
or you can walk through it in a debugger. I did the latter, creating a
