Merge branch 'dt/refs-pseudo'

To prepare for allowing a different "ref" backend to be plugged in
to the system, update_ref()/delete_ref() have been taught about
ref-like things like MERGE_HEAD that are per-worktree (they will
always be written to the filesystem inside $GIT_DIR).

* dt/refs-pseudo:
  pseudoref: check return values from read_ref()
  sequencer: replace write_cherry_pick_head with update_ref
  bisect: use update_ref
  pseudorefs: create and use pseudoref update and delete functions
  refs: add ref_type function
  refs: introduce pseudoref and per-worktree ref concepts
