I thought I would need the cleanups below for peel_ref, but it turns out that the middle chunk of the function is never exercised. They conflict textually with Michael's mh/packed-refs-various topic, so I think it may make sense to just rebase them on top of that.

  [1/2]: peel_ref: rename "sha1" argument to "peeled"
  [2/2]: peel_ref: refactor for safety with simultaneous update
