[PATCH v2 1/5] refs.c: move reflog updates into its own function

From

write_ref_sha1 tries to update the reflog while updating the ref. Move these reflog changes out into its own function so that we can do the same thing if we write a sha1 ref differently, for example by writing a ref to the packed refs file instead.
