check return value of verify_ref_format()
Users of the ref-filter code must call verify_ref_format() before formatting any refs, but most ignore its return value. This means we may print an error on a syntactically bogus pattern, but keep going anyway. In most cases this results in a fatal error when we actually try to format a ref. But if you have no refs to show at all, then the behavior is confusing: git prints the error from verify_ref_format(), then exits with code 0 without showing any output. Let's instead abort immediately if we know we have a bogus format. We'll output the usage information if we have it handy (just like the existing call in cmd_for_each_ref() does), and otherwise just die().
