[PATCH v2 3/4] p1400: Use `git-update-ref --stdin` to test multiple transactions

In commit 0a0fbbe3ff (refs: remove lookup cache for reference-transaction hook, 2020-08-25), a new benchmark was added to p1400 which has the intention to exercise creation of multiple transactions in a single process. As git-update-ref wasn't yet able to create multiple transactions with a single run we instead used git-push. As its non-atomic version creates a transaction per reference update, this was the best approximation we could make at that point in time.

Now that `git-update-ref --stdin` supports creation of multiple transactions, let's convert the benchmark to use that instead. It has less overhead and it's also a lot clearer what the actual intention is.
