refdb: return resolved symbolic refs pointing to nonexistent refs In some cases, resolving references requires us to also know about the final symbolic reference that's pointing to a nonexistent branch, e.g. in an empty repository where the main branch is yet unborn but HEAD already points to it. Right now, the resolving logic is thus split up into two, where one is the new refdb implementation and the second one is an ad-hoc implementation inside "refs.c". Let's extend `git_refdb_resolve` to also return such final dangling references pointing to nonexistent branches so we can deduplicate the resolving logic.
