refs: write packed_refs file using stdiojk/write-packed-refs-via-stdio
We write each line of a new packed-refs file individually using a write() syscall (and sometimes 2, if the ref is peeled). Since each line is only about 50-100 bytes long, this creates a lot of system call overhead. We can instead open a stdio handle around our descriptor and use fprintf to write to it. The extra buffering is not a problem for us, because nobody will read our new packed-refs file until we call commit_lock_file (by which point we have flushed everything). On a pathological repository with 8.5 million refs, this dropped the time to run `git pack-refs` from 20s to 6s.
