[PATCH 2/4] refs.c: split delete_ref_loose() into a separate flag-for-deletion and commit phase

Change delete_ref_loose()) to just flag that a ref is to be deleted but do not actually unlink the files. Change commit_ref_lock() so that it will unlink refs that are flagged for deletion. Change all callers of delete_ref_loose() to explicitely call commit_ref_lock() to commit the deletion.

The new pattern for deleting loose refs thus become:

lock = lock_ref_sha1_basic() (or varient of) delete_ref_loose(lock) unlock_ref(lock) | commit_ref_lock(lock)
