refs.c: pack all refs before we start to rename a ref

This means that most loose refs will no longer be present after the rename
which triggered a test failure since it assumes the file for an unrelated
ref would still be present after the rename.

We want to do this to make it easier to handle atomic renames in rename_ref for
the case 'git branch -m foo/bar foo'. If we can guarantee that foo/bar does not
exist as a loose ref we can avoid locking foo/bar.lock during transaction
commit and thus make it possible to delete the foo directory and re-create
it as a file(branch) in a single transaction.

refs.c: move the check for valid refname to lock_ref_sha1_basic

Move the check for check_refname_format from lock_any_ref_for_update
to lock_ref_sha1_basic. At some later stage we will get rid of
lock_any_ref_for_update completely.

This leaves lock_any_ref_for_updates as a no-op wrapper which could be removed.
But this wrapper is also called from an external caller and we will soon
make changes to the signature to lock_ref_sha1_basic that we do not want to
expose to that caller.

refs.c: call lock_ref_sha1_basic directly from commit

Skip using the lock_any_ref_for_update wrapper and call lock_ref_sha1_basic
directly from the commit function.

refs.c: add a new flag for transaction delete for refs we know are packed only

Add a new flag REF_ISPACKONLY that we can use in ref_transaction_delete.
This flag indicates that the ref does not exist as a loose ref andf only as
a packed ref. If this is the case we then change the commit code so that
we skip taking out a lock file and we skip calling delete_ref_loose.
Check for this flag and die(BUG:...) if used with _update or _create.

At the start of the transaction, before we even start locking any refs,
we add all such REF_ISPACKONLY refs to delnames so that we have a list of
all pack only refs that we will be deleting during this transaction.

refs.c: pass a skip list to name_conflict_fn

Allow passing a list of refs to skip checking to name_conflict_fn.
There are some conditions where we want to allow a temporary conflict and skip
checking those refs. For example if we have a transaction that
1, guarantees that m is a packed refs and there is no loose ref for m
2, the transaction will delete m from the packed ref
3, the transaction will create conflicting m/m

For this case we want to be able to lock and create m/m since we know that the
conflict is only transient. I.e. the conflict will be automatically resolved
by the transaction when it deletes m.

refs.c: propagate any errno==ENOTDIR from _commit back to the callers

In _commit, ENOTDIR can happen in the call to lock_ref_sha1_basic, either when
we lstat the new refname and it returns ENOTDIR or if the name checking
function reports that the same type of conflict happened. In both cases it
means that we can not create the new ref due to a name conflict.

For these cases, save the errno value and abort and make sure that the caller
can see errno==ENOTDIR.

Also start defining specific return codes for _commit, assign -1 as a generic
error and -2 as the error that refers to a name conflict. Callers can (and
should) use that return value inspecting errno directly.
