This series removes or moves some old material in the update-ref doc and
improves the discussion of symrefs, opting for a high-level description
with some redundancy (see patch 5/6) in order to avoid a reported
mistake/confusion.

The end goal (after all patches are applied):

• First paragraph (in Description) describes the first form
• Second paragraph the second form
• Third paragraph mentions symrefs and explains why `--stdin` supports
  them
• A new section whither the symlink (FS) vs. symrefs discussion is moved
• Link update-ref to symbolic-ref and vice versa
Thanks for working on this, I have gone through the patches, I think it
is in a great state.
