Thanks for catching these. I was going to comment on it as something I
noticed while reading the first patch, but I'm glad that you addressed
it here.

It looks like these two declarations date back to:

 - 19575c7c8e (multi-pack-index: implement 'expire' subcommand, 2019-06-10)
 - ce1e4a105b (midx: implement midx_repack(), 2019-06-10)

(both of which were merged via 4308d81d45 (Merge branch
'ds/midx-expire-repack', 2019-07-19)). But I think these have always had
the wrong type, since the pack_int_id field comes from commit fe1ed56f5e
(midx: sort and deduplicate objects from packfiles, 2018-07-12), where
it was first introduced as a uint32_t.

I actually think these all should size_t's since they're indexing into
an array, but that can be dealt with outside of this series, since this
is an obvious improvement.

Thanks,
Taylor
