[PATCH v6 4/9] packed-backend: check if header starts with "# pack-refs with: "

[shejialuo <shejialuo@gmail.com>]

We always write a space after "# pack-refs with:". However, when
creating the packed-ref snapshot, we only check whether the header
starts with "# pack-refs with:". However, we need to make sure that we
would not break compatibility by tightening the rule. The following is
how some third-party libraries handle the header of "packed-ref" file.

1. libgit2 is fine and always writes the space. It also expects the
   whitespace to exist.
2. JGit does not expect th header to have a trailing space, but expects
   the "peeled" capability to have a leading space, which is mostly
   equivalent because that capability is typically the first one we
   write. It always writes the space.
3. gitoxide expects the space t exist and writes it.
4. go-git doesn't create the header by default.

So, we are safe to tighten the rule by checking whether the header
starts with "# pack-refs with: ".
