Even when we are deleting references, we needn't overwrite the
`packed-refs` file if the references that we are deleting only exist
as loose references. Implement this optimization as follows:
* Add a function `is_packed_transaction_needed()`, which checks
whether a given packed-refs transaction actually needs to be carried
out (i.e., it returns false if the transaction obviously wouldn't
have any effect). This function must be called while holding the
`packed-refs` lock to avoid races.
* Change `files_transaction_prepare()` to check whether the
packed-refs transaction is actually needed. If not, squelch it, but
continue holding the `packed-refs` lock until the end of the
transaction to avoid races.
This fixes a mild regression caused by dc39e09942 (files_ref_store:
use a transaction to update packed refs, 2017-09-08). Before that
commit, unnecessary rewrites of `packed-refs` were suppressed by
`repack_without_refs()`. But the transaction-based writing introduced
by that commit didn't perform that optimization.
Note that the pre-dc39e09942 code still had to *read* the whole
`packed-refs` file to determine that the rewrite could be skipped, so
the performance for the cases that the write could be elided was
`O(N)` in the number of packed references both before and after
dc39e09942. But after that commit the constant factor increased.
This commit reimplements the optimization of eliding unnecessary
`packed-refs` rewrites. That, plus the fact that since
cfa2e29c34 (packed_ref_store: get rid of the `ref_cache` entirely,
2017-03-17) we don't necessarily have to read the whole `packed-refs`
file at all, means that deletes of one or a few loose references can
now be done with `O(n lg N)` effort, where `n` is the number of loose
references being deleted and `N` is the total number of packed
references.
This commit fixes two tests in t1409.

Now the outside world interacts with the packed ref store only via the
generic refs API plus a few lock-related functions. This allows us to
delete some functions that are no longer used, thereby completing the
encapsulation of the packed ref store.

Implement the methods needed to support reference transactions for
the packed-refs backend. The new methods are not yet used.

Add two new public functions, `packed_refs_unlock()` and
`packed_refs_is_locked()`, with which callers can manage and query the
`packed-refs` lock externally.
Call `packed_refs_unlock()` from `commit_packed_refs()` and
`rollback_packed_refs()`.

That way the callers don't have to come up with error messages
themselves.

Rename `lock_packed_refs()` to `packed_refs_lock()` for consistency
with how other methods are named. Also, it's about to get some
companions.

Report errors via a `struct strbuf *err` rather than by calling
`die()`. To enable this goal, change `write_packed_entry()` to report
errors via a return value and `errno` rather than dying.

Add the infrastructure to make `packed_ref_store` implement
`ref_store`, at least formally (few of the methods are actually
implemented yet). Change the functions in its interface to take
`ref_store *` arguments. Change `files_ref_store` to store a pointer
to `ref_store *` and to call functions via the virtual `ref_store`
interface where possible. This also means that a few
`packed_ref_store` functions can become static.
This is a work in progress. Some more `ref_store` methods will soon be
implemented (e.g., those having to do with reference transactions).
But some of them will never be implemented (e.g., those having to do
with symrefs or reflogs).

Now that the interface between `files_ref_store` and
`packed_ref_store` is relatively narrow, move the latter into a new
module, "refs/packed-backend.h" and "refs/packed-backend.c". It still
doesn't quite implement the `ref_store` interface, but it will soon.
This commit moves code around and adjusts its visibility, but doesn't
change anything.
