Re: [PATCH v5 25/26] refs: break out ref conflict checks

Create new function verify_no_descendants, to hold one of the ref
conflict checks used in verify_refname_available.  Multiple backends
will need this function, so it goes in the common code.

rename_ref_available also moves to the common code, because alternate
backends might need it and it has no files-backend-specific code.
It is preferred that log messages be written in the imperative voice:

    ... so move it to the common code.

    Also move rename_ref_available ...

In your version, the above comment is replaced with

    /* Look for the place where dirname would be inserted in extras. */

which is pretty obvious, I think, from the following line. It's
debatable whether the long-winded old comment was worthwhile, but I
think the new comment is clearly not. I suggest either restoring a
longer explanation or eliminating the comment altogether.

Project practice is to leave out unnecessary braces.
