The bsearch() implementation on IRIX 6.5 segfaults if it is passed NULL
for the base array argument even if number-of-elements is zero. So, let's
work around it by detecting an empty array and aborting early.
This is a useful optimization in its own right anyway, since we avoid a
useless allocation and initialization of the ref_entry when the ref array
is empty.

The variable "refs" is allocated on the stack but is not initialized. It
is passed to read_packed_refs(), and its struct members may eventually be
passed to add_ref() and ALLOC_GROW(). Since the structure has not been
initialized, its members may contain random non-zero values. So let's
initialize it.
The call sequence looks something like this:
resolve_gitlink_packed_ref(...) {
struct cached_refs refs;
...
read_packed_refs(f, &refs);
...
}
read_packed_refs(FILE*, struct cached_refs *cached_refs) {
...
add_ref(name, sha1, flag, &cached_refs->packed, &last);
...
}
add_ref(..., struct ref_array *refs, struct ref_entry **) {
...
ALLOC_GROW(refs->refs, refs->nr + 1, refs->alloc);
}

In add_ref(), verify that the refname is formatted correctly before
adding it to the ref_list. Here we have to allow refname components
that start with ".", since (for example) the remote protocol uses
synthetic reference name ".have". So add a new REFNAME_DOT_COMPONENT
flag that can be passed to check_refname_format() to allow leading
dots.

Since much of the infrastructure does not work correctly with
unnormalized refnames, change check_refname_format() to reject them.
Similarly, change "git check-ref-format" to reject unnormalized
refnames by default. But add an option --normalize, which causes "git
check-ref-format" to normalize the refname before checking its format,
and print the normalized refname. This is exactly the behavior of the
old --print option, which is retained but deprecated.

Change check_ref_format() to take a flags argument that indicates what
is acceptable in the reference name (analogous to "git
check-ref-format"'s "--allow-onelevel" and "--refspec-pattern"). This
is more convenient for callers and also fixes a failure in the test
suite (and likely elsewhere in the code) by enabling "onelevel" and
"refspec-pattern" to be allowed independently of each other.
Also rename check_ref_format() to check_refname_format() to make it
obvious that it deals with refnames rather than references themselves.

Previously most bad characters were indicated by returning 1, but "*"
was special-cased to return 2 instead of 1. One caller examined the
return value to see whether the special case occurred.
But it is easier (to document and understand) for bad_ref_char()
simply to return a boolean value, treating "*" like any other bad
character. Special-case the handling of "*" (which only occurs in
very specific circumstances) at the caller. The resulting calling
code thereby also becomes more transparent.

Currently we linearly search through lists of refs when we need to
find a specific ref. This can be very slow if we need to lookup a
large number of refs. By changing to a binary search we can make this
faster.
In order to be able to use a binary search we need to change from
using linked lists to arrays, which we can manage using ALLOC_GROW.
We can now also use the standard library qsort function to sort the
refs arrays.

get_ref_dir is called recursively for subdirectories, which means that
we were calling sort_ref_list for each directory of refs instead of
once for all the refs. This is a massive wast of processing, so now
just call sort_ref_list on the result of the top-level get_ref_dir, so
that the sort is only done once.
In the common case of only a few different directories of refs the
difference isn't very noticable, but it becomes very noticeable when
you have a large number of direcotries containing refs (e.g. as
created by Gerrit).
