[PATCH v14 38/40] refs.c: propagate any errno==ENOTDIR from _commit back to the callers

[Ronnie Sahlberg <sahlberg@google.com>]

In _commit, ENOTDIR can happen in the call to lock_ref_sha1_basic, either when
we lstat the new refname and it returns ENOTDIR or if the name checking
function reports that the same type of conflict happened. In both cases it
means that we can not create the new ref due to a name conflict.

For these cases, save the errno value and abort and make sure that the caller
can see errno==ENOTDIR.

Also start defining specific return codes for _commit, assign -1 as a generic
error and -2 as the error that refers to a name conflict. Callers can (and
should) use that return value inspecting errno directly.
