odb: move kept cache into `struct packfile_store`

The object database tracks a cache of "kept" packfiles, which is used by git-pack-objects(1) to handle cruft objects. With the introduction of the `struct packfile_store` we have a better place to host this cache though. Move the cache accordingly. This moves the last bit of packfile-related state from the object database into the packfile store. Adapt the comment for the `packfiles` pointer in `struct object_database` to reflect this.
