    refs: do not use peeled OID if peeling to a tag If a reference stored in a packed-refs file does not directly point to a commit, tree or blob, the packed-refs file will also will include a fully-peeled OID pointing to the first underlying object of that type. If we try to peel a reference to an object, we will use that peeled OID to speed up resolving the object. As a reference for an annotated tag does not directly point to a commit, tree or blob but instead to the tag object, the packed-refs file will have an accomodating fully-peeled OID pointing to the object referenced by that tag. When we use the fully-peeled OID pointing to the referenced object when peeling, we obviously cannot peel that to the tag anymore. Fix this issue by not using the fully-peeled OID whenever we want to peel to a tag. Note that this does not include the case where we want to resolve to _any_ object type. Existing code may make use from the fact that we resolve those to commit objects instead of tag objects, even though that behaviour is inconsistent between packed and loose references. Furthermore, some tests of ours make the assumption that we in fact resolve those references to a commit.
