Replace a raw '! test -f' check with test_path_is_missing to use the standard test helper and improve consistency with other tests.

    [GSoC]: t2107-refs-tests: drop '-f' from test_path_is_missing
    
    
    High-level (Intent & Context)
    =============================
    
    The test script t/pack-refs-tests.sh has two issues that prevent it from
    running correctly.
    
    It uses: ! test -f .git/index.lock
    
    This is inconsistent with the Git test framework, where helper functions
    such as test_path_is_missing should be used instead of raw test checks.
    
    
    Low-level (Implementation & Justification)
    ==========================================
    
    Without sourcing test-lib.sh, the test framework is not initialized,
    leading to errors such as: test_expect_success: not found
    
    Replaced raw file check with the appropriate helper:
    
    - ! test -f .git/index.lock
    + test_path_is_missing .git/index.lock
    
    
    
    Summary
    =======
    
    Replace test_path_is_missing .git/index.lock

The author identifier (name and email) used here to identify the author must match the identifier used to sign-off. You'd probably need to "git commit --amend --reset-author" this commit with updatec user.name set to "Jayesh Daga", not "jayesh0104" or something.
