Remove pack file handling dependency from wrapper.o

As v1.7.0-rc0~43 (slim down "git show-index", 2010-01-21) explains,
use of xmalloc() brings in a dependency on zlib, the sha1 lib, and the
rest of git's object file access machinery via try_to_free_pack_memory.
That is overkill when xmalloc is just being used as a convenience
wrapper to exit when no memory is available.

So defer setting try_to_free_pack_memory as try_to_free_routine until
the first packfile is opened in add_packed_git().

After this change, a simple program using xmalloc() and no other
functions will not pull in any code from libgit.a aside from wrapper.o
and usage.o.
