builtin/refs: new command to migrate ref storage formats
Introduce a new command that allows the user to migrate a repository
between ref storage formats. This new command is implemented as part of
a new git-refs(1) executable. This is due to two reasons:
- There is no good place to put the migration logic in existing
commands. git-maintenance(1) felt unwieldy, and git-pack-refs(1) is
not the correct place to put it, either.
- I had it in my mind to create a new low-level command for accessing
refs for quite a while already. git-refs(1) is that command and can
over time grow more functionality relating to refs. This should help
discoverability by consolidating low-level access to refs into a
single executable.
As mentioned in the preceding commit that introduces the ref storage
format migration logic, the new `git refs migrate` command still has a
bunch of restrictions. These restrictions are documented accordingly.
