Michael Haggerty 4c4de89573 do_for_each_ref(): reimplement using reference iteration
Use the reference iterator interface to implement do_for_each_ref().
Delete a bunch of code supporting the old for_each_ref() implementation.
And now that do_for_each_ref() is generic code (it is no longer tied to
the files backend), move it to refs.c.

The implementation is via a new function, do_for_each_ref_iterator(),
which takes a reference iterator as argument and calls a callback
function for each of the references in the iterator.

This change requires the current_ref performance hack for peel_ref() to
be implemented via ref_iterator_peel() rather than peel_entry() because
we don't have a ref_entry handy (it is hidden under three layers:
file_ref_iterator, merge_ref_iterator, and cache_ref_iterator). So:

* do_for_each_ref_iterator() records the active iterator in
  current_ref_iter while it is running.

* peel_ref() checks whether current_ref_iter is pointing at the
  requested reference. If so, it asks the iterator to peel the
  reference (which it can do efficiently via its "peel" virtual
  function). For extra safety, we do the optimization only if the
  refname *addresses* are the same, not only if the refname *strings*
  are the same, to forestall possible mixups between refnames that come
  from different ref_iterators.

Please note that this optimization of peel_ref() is only available when
iterating via do_for_each_ref_iterator() (including all of the
for_each_ref() functions, which call it indirectly). It would be
complicated to implement a similar optimization when iterating directly
using a reference iterator, because multiple reference iterators can be
in use at the same time, with interleaved calls to
ref_iterator_advance(). (In fact we do exactly that in
merge_ref_iterator.)

But that is not necessary. peel_ref() is only called while iterating
over references. Callers who iterate using the for_each_ref() functions
benefit from the optimization described above. Callers who iterate using
reference iterators directly have access to the ref_iterator, so they
can call ref_iterator_peel() themselves to get an analogous optimization
in a more straightforward manner.

If we rewrite all callers to use the reference iteration API, then we
can remove the current_ref_iter hack permanently.

*
* A reference iterator encapsulates the state of an in-progress

*
* A freshly-created ref_iterator doesn't yet point at a reference. To

* the next reference and returns ITER_OK. The data pointed at by
* refname and oid belong to the iterator; if you want to retain them
* after calling ref_iterator_advance() again or calling
* ref_iterator_abort(), you must make a copy. When the iteration has
* been exhausted, ref_iterator_advance() releases any resources
* assocated with the iteration, frees the ref_iterator object, and
* returns ITER_DONE. If you want to abort the iteration early, call
* ref_iterator_abort(), which also frees the ref_iterator object and
* any associated resources. If there was an internal error advancing
* to the next entry, ref_iterator_advance() aborts the iteration,
* frees the ref_iterator, and returns ITER_ERROR.
*
* The reference currently being looked at can be peeled by calling
* ref_iterator_peel(). This function is often faster than peel_ref(),
* so it should be preferred when iterating over references.
*
* Putting it all together, a typical iteration looks like this:
*
* int ok;
* struct ref_iterator *iter = ...;
*
* while ((ok = ref_iterator_advance(iter)) == ITER_OK) {
* if (want_to_stop_iteration()) {
* ok = ref_iterator_abort(iter);

* if (!(iter->flags & REF_ISSYMREF))
* printf("%s is %s\n", iter->refname, oid_to_hex(&iter->oid));
