[PATCH 21/25] for-each-ref: skip and warn about broken ref names

[Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com>]

Print a warning message for any bad ref names we find in the repo and
skip them so callers don't have to deal with parsing them.

It might be useful in the future to have a flag where we would not
skip these refs for those callers that want to and are prepared (for
example by using a --format argument with %0 as a delimiter after the
ref name).
