[PATCH v9 02/44] refs.c: allow passing NULL to ref_transaction_free

Allow ref_transaction_free(NULL) and hence ref_transaction_rollback(NULL)
as no-ops. This makes ref_transaction_rollback easier to use and more similar
to plain 'free'.

In particular, it lets us rollback unconditionally as part of cleanup code
after setting 'transaction = NULL' if a transaction has been committed or
rolled back already.

This allows us to write code like
  if ( (!transaction ||
        ref_transaction_update(...))  ||
      (ref_transaction_commit(...) && !(transaction = NULL)) {
          ref_transaction_rollback(transaction);
          ...
  }
