[PATCH v11 31/41] refs.c: make prune_ref use a transaction to delete the ref

Change prune_ref to delete the ref using a ref transaction. To do this we also need to add a new flag REF_ISPRUNING that will tell the transaction that we do not want to delete this ref from the packed refs. This flag is private to refs.c and not exposed to external callers.
