The create_symref() function predates the existence of
"struct lock_file", let alone the more recent "struct
ref_lock". Instead, it just does its own manual dot-locking.
Besides being more code, this has a few downsides:
- if git is interrupted while holding the lock, we don't
clean up the lockfile
- we don't do the usual directory/filename conflict check.
So you can sometimes create a symref "refs/heads/foo/bar",
even if "refs/heads/foo" exists (namely, if the refs are
packed and we do not hit the d/f conflict in the
filesystem).
This patch refactors create_symref() to use the "struct
ref_lock" interface, which handles both of these things.
There are a few bonus cleanups that come along with it:
- we leaked ref_path in some error cases
- the symref contents were stored in a fixed-size buffer,
putting an artificial (albeit large) limitation on the
length of the refname. We now write through fprintf, and
handle refnames of any size.
- we called adjust_shared_perm only after the file was
renamed into place, creating a potential race with
readers in a shared repository. The lockfile code now
handles this when creating the lockfile, making it
atomic.
- the legacy prefer_symlink_refs path did not do any
locking at all. Admittedly, it is not atomic from a
reader's perspective (as it unlinks and re-creates the
symlink to overwrite), but at least it cannot conflict
with other writers now.
- the result of this patch is hopefully more readable. It
eliminates three goto labels. Two were for error checking
that is now simplified, and the third was to reach shared
code that has been pulled into its own function.

Once upon a time, create_symref() was used only to point
HEAD at a branch name, and the variable names reflect that
(e.g., calling the path git_HEAD). However, it is much more
generic these days (and has been for some time). Let's
update the variable names to make it easier to follow:
- `ref_target` is now just `refname`. This is closer to
the `ref` that is already in `cache.h`, but with the
extra twist that "name" makes it clear this is the name
and not a ref struct. Dropping "target" hopefully makes
it clear that we are talking about the symref itself,
not what it points to.
- `git_HEAD` is now `ref_path`; the on-disk path
corresponding to `ref`.
- `refs_heads_master` is now just `target`; i.e., what the
symref points at. This term also matches what is in
the symlink(2) manpage (at least on Linux).
- the buffer to hold the symref file's contents was simply
called `ref`. It's now `buf` (admittedly also generic,
but at least not actively introducing confusion with the
other variable holding the refname).

Create new function find_descendant_ref, to hold one of the ref
conflict checks used in verify_refname_available. Multiple backends
will need this function, so move it to the common code.
Also move rename_ref_available to the common code, because alternate
backends might need it and it has no files-backend-specific code.

Because HEAD and stash are per-worktree, every refs backend needs to
go through the files backend to write these refs.
So create a new function, files_log_ref_write, and add it to
refs/refs-internal.h. Later, we will use this to handle reflog updates
for per-worktree symbolic refs (HEAD).

As another step in the move to pluggable reference backends, move the
code that is specific to the filesystem-based reference backend (i.e.,
the current system of storing references as loose and packed files) into
a separate file, refs/files-backend.c.
Aside from a tiny bit of file header boilerplate, this commit only moves
a subset of the code verbatim from refs.c to the new file, as can easily
be verified using patience diff:
git diff --patience $commit^:refs.c $commit:refs.c
git diff --patience $commit^:refs.c $commit:refs/files-backend.c
