[PATCH v2] t1402: test forbidden characters in refnames

["Nikolaus Schuetz via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>]

From: Nikolaus Schuetz <nikolauspschuetz@gmail.com>

git-check-ref-format(1) documents that a refname cannot contain a
space, tilde, caret, colon, question-mark, asterisk, open-bracket or
backslash, nor the sequence "..", and cannot be the single character
"@".  Of these, only "?", "\" and ".." were tested embedded in an
otherwise-valid refname; "*" was checked only as a lone character or
with --refspec-pattern.

Test all of them in that embedded form with a single loop, and check
that "@" alone is rejected even with --allow-onelevel -- where "@" is
otherwise a valid refname component, as "refs/@" confirms.

    t1402: test forbidden characters in refnames
    
    git-check-ref-format(1) documents the characters that a refname may not
    contain (space, tilde, caret, colon, question-mark, asterisk,
    open-bracket) and the rule that it may not be the single character "@".
    t1402 only exercised a few of these directly.
    
    This adds the remaining forbidden characters in embedded form, and
    checks that "@" alone is rejected even with --allow-onelevel, where "@"
    is otherwise a valid refname component (as "refs/@" confirms).
    
    Test-only; documents existing behaviour, in the spirit of 919eb8ace
    (t1402: check for refs ending with a dot).
