This allows them to be used by other ref backends.

The fact that these constants might be used by multiple reference
backends is not a reason to put them in the ref API's public interface.
We don't want random code using these contants, right?

Maybe there should be a new file pair, refs-be-shared.{c,h}, for
"protected" constants and functions for the internal use of the
reference backends. In fact, maybe `struct ref_be` and the associated
typedefs could even be moved there.

Probably some of the functions that you have made public earlier in this
series could also go into the "protected" area.
