tmp-objdir: disable ref updates when replacing the primary odb
When creating a subprocess with a temporary ODB, we set the GIT_QUARANTINE_ENVIRONMENT env var to tell child Git processes not to update refs, since the tmp-objdir may go away. Introduce a similar mechanism for in-process temporary ODBs when we call tmp_objdir_replace_primary_odb. Now both mechanisms set the disable_ref_updates flag on the odb, which is queried by the ref_transaction_prepare function. Peff's test case [1] was invoking ref updates via the cachetextconv setting. That particular code silently does nothing when a ref update is forbidden. See the call to notes_cache_put in fill_textconv where errors are ignored.
