index-pack: --fsck-objects to take an optional argument for fsck msgs

git-index-pack has a --strict option that can take an optional argument
to provide a list of fsck issues to change their severity.
--fsck-objects does not have such a utility, which would be useful if
one would like to be more lenient or strict on data integrity in a
repository.

Like --strict, allow --fsck-objects to also take a list of fsck msgs to
change the severity.

Remove the "For internal use only" note for --fsck-objects, and document
the option. This won't often be used by the normal end user, but it
turns out it is useful for Git forges like GitLab.

An optional comma-separated list of `<msg-id>=<severity>` can be passed to
change the severity of some possible issues, e.g.,
`--fsck-objects="missingEmail=ignore,badTagName=ignore"`. See the entry for the
`fsck.<msg-id>` configuration options in linkgit:git-fsck[1] for more
information on the possible values of `<msg-id>` and `<severity>`.
