packed-backend: add "packed-refs" header consistency check
In "packed-backend.c::create_snapshot", if there is a header (the line which starts with '#'), we will check whether the line starts with "# pack-refs with: ". However, we need to consider other situations and discuss whether we need to add checks. 1. If the header does not exist, we should not report an error to the user. This is because in older Git version, we never write header in the "packed-refs" file. Also, we do allow no header in "packed-refs" in runtime. 2. If the header content does not start with "# packed-ref with: ", we should report an error just like what "create_snapshot" does. So, create a new fsck message "badPackedRefHeader(ERROR)" for this. 3. If the header content is not the same as the constant string "PACKED_REFS_HEADER". This is expected because we make it extensible intentionally and runtime "create_snapshot" won't complain about unknown traits. In order to align with the runtime behavior. There is no need to report. As we have analyzed, we only need to check the case 2 in the above. In order to do this, use "open_nofollow" function to get the file descriptor and then read the "packed-refs" file via "strbuf_read". Like what "create_snapshot" and other functions do, we could split the line by finding the next newline in the buffer. When we cannot find a newline, we could report an error. So, create a function "packed_fsck_ref_next_line" to find the next newline and if there is no such newline, use "packedRefEntryNotTerminated(ERROR)" to report an error to the user. Then, parse the first line to apply the checks. Update the test to exercise the code.
