[PATCH v2 5/9] refs: avoid duplicate running of the reference-transaction hook

From: Jiang Xin <zhiyou.jx@alibaba-inc.com>

If there are references to be deleted in a transaction, we should remove each reference from both loose references and the "packed-refs" file. The "reference-transaction" hook will run twice, once for the primary ref-store (loose ref-store), and another for the second ref-store (i.e. packed ref-store).

To avoid duplicate running of the "reference-trancaction" hook, we pass a special "hook-flags" parameter to initialize the second ref-store. The "REF_TRANSACTION_RUN_PREPARED_HOOK" bit is preserved for the transaction of the second ref-store because we may still want to call command "reference-trancaction prepared" to do some checks. E.g.: We can create a global lock file (such as "site.lock") to disable writing permissions for one or multiple repositories.

The behavior of the following git commands and five testcases have been fixed in t1416:

 * git cherry-pick
 * git rebase
 * git revert
 * git update-ref -d <ref>
 * git update-ref --stdin	# delete refs
