Once upon a time, create_symref() was used only to point
HEAD at a branch name, and the variable names reflect that
(e.g., calling the path git_HEAD). However, it is much more
generic these days (and has been for some time). Let's
update the variable names to make it easier to follow:

  - `ref_target` is now just `ref`, matching the declaration
    in `cache.h` (and hopefully making it clear that it is
    the symref itself, and not the target).

I've been trying to name variables that hold reference names "refname"
to distinguish them clearly from other representations of references,
like "struct ref_entry *".

Otherwise LGTM.
