Git allows setting a different object directory via
'GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY', but provides no equivalent for references. In
the previous commit we extended the 'extensions.refStorage' config to
also support an URI input for reference backend with location.
Let's also add a new environment variable 'GIT_REFERENCE_BACKEND' that
takes in the same input as the config variable. Having an environment
variable allows us to modify the reference backend and location on the
fly for individual Git commands.
The environment variable also allows usage of alternate reference
directories during 'git-clone(1)' and 'git-init(1)'. Add the config to
the repository when created with the environment variable set.
When initializing the repository with an alternate reference folder,
create the required stubs in the repositories $GIT_DIR. The inverse,
i.e. removal of the ref store doesn't clean up the stubs in the $GIT_DIR
since that would render it unusable. Removal of ref store is only used
when migrating between ref formats and cleanup of the $GIT_DIR doesn't
make sense in such a situation.

The 'extensions.refStorage' config is used to specify the reference
backend for a given repository. Both the 'files' and 'reftable' backends
utilize the $GIT_DIR as the reference folder by default in
`get_main_ref_store()`.
Since the reference backends are pluggable, this means that they could
work with out-of-tree reference directories too. Extend the 'refStorage'
config to also support taking an URI input, where users can specify the
reference backend and the location.
Add the required changes to obtain and propagate this value to the
individual backends. Add the necessary documentation and tests.
Traditionally, for linked worktrees, references were stored in the
'$GIT_DIR/worktrees/<wt_id>' path. But when using an alternate reference
storage path, it doesn't make sense to store the main worktree
references in the new path, and the linked worktree references in the
$GIT_DIR. So, let's store linked worktree references in
'$ALTERNATE_REFERENCE_DIR/worktrees/<wt_id>'. To do this, create the
necessary files and folders while also adding stubs in the $GIT_DIR path
to ensure that it is still considered a Git directory.
Ideally, we would want to pass in a `struct worktree *` to individual
backends, instead of passing the `gitdir`. This allows them to handle
worktree specific logic. Currently, that is not possible since the
worktree code is:
- Tied to using the global `the_repository` variable.
- Is not setup before the reference database during initialization of
the repository.
Add a TODO in 'refs.c' to ensure we can eventually make that change.

An upcoming commit will add support for providing an URI via the
'extensions.refStorage' config. The URI will contain the reference
backend and a corresponding payload. The payload can be then used for
providing an alternate locations for the reference backend.
To prepare for this, modify the existing backends to accept such an
argument when initializing via the 'init()' function. Both the files
and reftable backends will parse the information to be filesystem paths
to store references. Given that no callers pass any payload yet this is
essentially a no-op change for now.
To enable this, provide a 'refs_compute_filesystem_location()' function
which will parse the current 'gitdir' and the 'payload' to provide the
final reference directory and common reference directory (if working in
a linked worktree).
The documentation and tests will be added alongside the extension of the
config variable.

When creating the reftable reference backend on disk, we create stubs to
ensure that the directory can be recognized as a Git repository. This is
done by calling `refs_create_refdir_stubs()`. Move this to the generic
layer as this is needed for all backends excluding from the files
backends. In an upcoming commit where we introduce alternate reference
backend locations, we'll have to also create stubs in the $GIT_DIR
irrespective of the backend being used. This commit builds the base to
add that logic.
Similarly, move the logic for deletion of stubs to the generic layer.
The files backend recursively calls the remove function of the
'packed-backend', here skip calling the generic function since that
would try to delete stubs.
