Han-Wen Nienhuys 617480d75b refs: make explicit that ref_iterator_peel returns boolean ...

Use -1 as error return value throughout.

This removes spurious differences in the GIT_TRACE_REFS output, depending on the
ref storage backend active.

Before, the cached ref_iterator (but only that iterator!) would return
peel_object() output directly. No callers relied on the peel_status values
beyond success/failure. All calls to these functions go through
peel_iterated_oid(), which returns peel_object() as a fallback, but also
squashing the error values.

The iteration interface already passes REF_ISSYMREF and REF_ISBROKEN through the
flags argument, so the additional error values in enum peel_status provide no
value.

The ref iteration interface provides a separate peel() function because certain
formats (eg. packed-refs and reftable) can store the peeled object next to the
tag SHA1. Passing the peeled SHA1 as an optional argument to each_ref_fn maps
more naturally to the implementation of ref databases. Changing the code in this
way is left for a future refactoring.
