pack-write: pass hash_algo to `write_rev_file()`

The `write_rev_file()` function uses the global `the_hash_algo` variable
to access the repository's hash_algo. To avoid global variable usage,
pass a hash_algo from the layers above. Also modify children functions
`write_rev_file_order()` and `write_rev_header()` to accept
'the_hash_algo'.

Altough the layers above could have access to the hash_algo internally,
simply pass in `the_hash_algo`. This avoids any compatibility issues and
bubbles up global variable usage to upper layers which can be eventually
resolved.

However, in `midx-write.c`, since all usage of global variables is
removed, don't reintroduce them and instead use the `repo` available in
the context.
