These three functions are only used as callback from for_each_ref() so they always get the full refname and nothing else (like a partial refname like tags/v1.7.9), so calling them refname makes perfect sense.

Even though I generally try to stay away from this kind of naming churn patches, but hopefully there is nothing in flight to cause horrible conflict with it.

Thanks.
