[PATCH 4/8] rev-parse: teach "git rev-parse --symbolic" to print the full ref name

[Steffen Prohaska <prohaska@zib.de>]

"git rev-parse --symbolic" used to return the ref name as it was
specified on the command line. This is changed to returning the
full matched ref name, i.e. "git rev-parse --symbolic master"
now typically returns "refs/heads/master".

Note, this changes output of an established command. It might
break existing setups. I checked that it does not break scripts
in git.git.
