pack-objects (mingw): initialize packing_data mutex in the correct spot

In 9ac3f0e (pack-objects: fix performance issues on packing large
deltas, 2018-07-22), a mutex was introduced that is used to guard the
call to set the delta size. This commit even added code to initialize
it, but at an incorrect spot: in `init_threaded_search()`, while the
call to `oe_set_delta_size()` (and hence to `packing_data_lock()`) can
happen in the call chain `check_object()` <- `get_object_details()` <-
`prepare_pack()` <- `cmd_pack_objects()`, which is long before the
`prepare_pack()` function calls `ll_find_deltas()` (which initializes
the threaded search).

Another tell-tale that the mutex was initialized in an incorrect spot is
that the function to initialize it lives in builtin/, while the code
that uses the mutex is defined in a libgit.a header file.

Let's use a more appropriate function: `prepare_packing_data()`, which
not only lives in libgit.a, but *has* to be called before the
`packing_data` struct is used that contains that mutex.

This fixes #1839.
