When the current branch is renamed with 'git branch -m/-M' or deleted

In preparation for adding a more meaningful message to HEAD's log in
these cases, update delete_ref() to take a message argument and pass
it along to ref_transaction_delete().  Modify all callers to pass NULL
for the new message argument; no change in behavior is intended.
Seems like a good first step.

Should the "msg" argument go at the beginning, to match update_ref()?
