[PATCH v7 39/42] refs.c: add a new flag for transaction delete for refs we know are packed only

[Ronnie Sahlberg <sahlberg@google.com>]

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.
