Subject: [PATCH] pack-objects (mingw): demonstrate a segmentation fault with
 large deltas

There is a problem in the way 9ac3f0e5b3e4 (pack-objects: fix
performance issues on packing large deltas, 2018-07-22) initializes that
mutex in the `packing_data` struct. The problem manifests in a
segmentation fault on Windows, when a mutex (AKA critical section) is
accessed without being initialized. (With pthreads, you apparently do
not really have to initialize them?)

This was reported in https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/1839.
