[PATCH v9 22/44] fetch.c: clear errno before calling functions that might set it

[Ronnie Sahlberg <sahlberg@google.com>]

In s_update_ref there are two calls that when they fail we return an error
based on the errno value. In particular we want to return a specific error
if ENOTDIR happened. Both these functions do have failure modes where they
may return an error without updating errno, in which case a previous and
unrelated ENOTDIR may cause us to return the wrong error. Clear errno before
calling any functions if we check errno afterwards.

Also skip initializing a static variable to 0. Statics live in .bss and
are all automatically initialized to 0.
