refdb: catch additional per-worktree refs The upstream git.git project currently identifies all references inside of `refs/bisect/` as well as `HEAD` as per-worktree references. This is already incorrect and is currently being fixed by an in-flight topic [1]. The new behavior will be to match all pseudo-references outside of the `refs/` hierarchy as well as `refs/bisect/`. Our current behavior is to mark a selection of pseudo-references as per-worktree, only. This matches more pseudo-references than current git, but forgets about `refs/bisect/`. Adjust behavior to match the in-flight topic, that is classify the following references as per-worktree: - everything outside of `refs/` - everything inside of `refs/bisect/` [1]: <20170213152011.12050-1-pclouds@gmail.com>
