get_ref_dir(): require that the dirname argument ends in '/'

This removes some conditional code and makes it consistent with the
way that direntry names are stored.  Please note that this function is
never used on the top-level .git directory; it is always called for
directories at level .git/refs or deeper.

get_ref_dir(): take the containing directory as argument

Previously, the "dir" argument to get_ref_dir() was a pointer to the
top-level ref_dir.  Change the function to expect a pointer to the
ref_dir corresponding to dirname.  This allows entries to be added
directly to dir, without having to recurse through the reference trie
each time (i.e., we can use add_entry_to_dir() instead of add_ref()).

This simplifies the bookkeeping and allows an (artificial) restriction
on refname component length to be removed.

refs: read loose references lazily

Instead of reading the whole directory of loose references the first
time any are needed, only read them on demand, one directory at a
time.

Use a new ref_entry flag bit REF_INCOMPLETE to indicate that the entry
represents a REF_DIR that hasn't been read yet.  Whenever any entries
from such a directory are needed, read all of the loose references
from that directory.
