    refs: Partial rewrite for read-only refs This new version of the references code is significantly faster and hopefully easier to read. External API stays the same. A new method `git_reference_reload()` has been added to force updating a memory reference from disk. In-memory references are no longer updated automagically -- this was killing us. If a reference is deleted externally and the user doesn't reload the memory object, nothing critical happens: any functions using that reference should fail gracefully (e.g. deletion, renaming, and so on). All generated references from the API are read only and must be free'd by the user. There is no reference counting and no traces of generated references are kept in the library. There is no longer an internal representation for references. There is only one reference struct `git_reference`, and symbolic/oid targets are stored inside an union. Packfile references are stored using an optimized struct with flex array for reference names. This should significantly reduce the memory cost of loading the packfile from disk.
