Add refs-related options to the "fsck_options", create refs-specific

We should have an explanation _why_ we are adding these functions in the
commit message.
"fsck_refs_error_function" will use the "oid" parameter. When the caller
passes the oid, it will use "oid_to_hex" to get the corresponding hex
value to report to the caller.

Last, add "FSCK_REFS_OPTIONS_DEFAULT" and "FSCK_REFS_OPTIONS_STRICT"
macros to create refs options easily.
It is a bit unclear to me what you mean with "create refs options
easily". Do you mean to say that `git refs check` (or whatever this will
be called) will have flags like "--strict"?

Okay, so we do end up printing the object ID indeed. But wouldn't we
want to potentially do the same with symbolic refs?

Also, would it make more sense to put the `oid` (and potentially the
`referent` when we also handle symbolic refs) into `struct
fsck_refs_info`? Like this, the whole state would be self-contained in
that structure, which would also make my proposal from a preceding
commit more feasible where the subsystem-specific error functions only
get a void pointer to this structure. It would require another
refactoring on top to move the object type and OID into a `struct
fsck_objects_info`, too, but that shouldn't be too involved, I guess.
