From: Derrick Stolee <derrickstolee@github.com>

t1409-avoid-packing-refs.sh seeks to test that the packed-refs file is not modified unnecessarily. One way it does this is by creating a packed-refs file, then munging its contents and verifying that the munged data remains after other commands.

For packed-refs v1, it suffices to add a line that is similar to a comment. For packed-refs v2, we cannot even add to the file without messing up the trailing table of contents of its chunked format. However, we can manipulate the last bytes that are within the trailing hash and use 'tail -c 4' to read them.

This makes t1409 pass with GIT_TEST_PACKED_REFS_VERSION=2.
