[PATCH 09/22] reftable/writer: handle allocation failures in `reftable_new_writer()`

[Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im>]

Handle allocation failures in `reftable_new_writer()`. Adapt the
function to return an error code to return such failures. While at it,
rename it to match our code style as we have to touch up every callsite
anyway.
