refs: implement function to read references from file · 5b65ac25
Currently, we only provide functions to read references directly from a repository's reference store via e.g. `git_reference_lookup`. But in some cases, we may want to read files not connected to the current repository, e.g. when looking up HEAD of connected work trees. This commit implements `git_reference__read_head`, which will read out and allocate a reference at an arbitrary path.
