This is v3 of a patch series creating a `packed_ref_store` reference
backend. Thanks to Peff and Junio for their comments about v2 [1].
Changes since v2:
* Delete some debugging `cat` commands in t1408.
* Add some tests of reading packed-refs files with bogus contents.
* When reporting corruption in packed-refs files, distinguish between
unterminated lines and other corruption.
* Fixed a typo in a commit message.
Thanks. I just quickly re-reviewed based on the diff from v2, and it
looks good to me.

We have a user that reports:
The issue is for users who have a mirrored repository, "git pack-refs"
now overwrites the .git/packed-refs symlink instead of following it and
replacing the file it points to.
I suspect this series to be at fault, as the bug report came in a day after
we deployed next containing these changes.
Do symlinks and packed-refs ring a bell for this series?
Thanks,
Stefan
