[PATCH 00/16] refs: drop all references to `the_repository`

Hi,

in "ps/refs-without-the-repository", we have removed all functions in the refs API that could be trivially converted to accept a proper ref store as input. This was a mechanical change, and because the resulting patches were quite large by themselves already, I decided to push out further dependencies on `the_repository` in refs-related code to a follow up.

This patch series here is that follow-up and removes all references to `the_repository` in "refs.c" and "refs/". This includes both explicit use of `the_repository`, but also implicit use via `the_hash_algo`.

The series is based on 19fe900cfc (The fourth batch, 2024-05-15) and pulls in "ps/refs-without-the-repository" at c8f815c208 (refs: remove functions without ref store, 2024-05-07) as dependency. It applies cleanly to both next and seen at the current point in time.
