[PATCH 01/16] refs: add a backend method structure with transaction functions

[David Turner <dturner@twopensource.com>]

From: Ronnie Sahlberg <sahlberg@google.com>

Add a ref structure for backend methods. Start by adding a method pointer
for the transaction commit function.

Add a function set_refs_backend to switch between backends. The files
based backend is the default.
