[PATCH 0/7] Tidy up the constants related to ref_update::flags

[Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu>]

Nothing earth-shattering here; just cleaning up some internal details
that have bothered me for a while:

* Make it clearer which flag values the packed backend might confront.

* Reduce the visibility of the constants that are only relevant to the
  files backend. The most notable of these is `REF_ISPRUNING`, which
  previously was special-cased in
  `REF_TRANSACTION_UPDATE_ALLOWED_FLAGS` even though it shouldn't be
  used by callers outside of the refs module.

* Die (rather then silently ignoring) if any disallowed flags are
  passed to `ref_transaction_update()` or friends.

* Rename `REF_NODEREF` to `REF_NO_DEREF` (otherwise it's easy to read
  as `REF_NODE_REF`!)

* Rename `REF_ISPRUNING` to `REF_IS_PRUNING`.

* Make the constants' numerical values correspond to their order.

* Improve a lot of docstrings.

This patch series depends on `bc/object-id`, mostly so that the
comments can talk about OIDs rather than SHA-1s.

These patches are also available as branch `tidy-ref-update-flags`
from my GitHub fork [1].

Michael Haggerty (7):
  files_transaction_prepare(): don't leak flags to packed transaction
  prune_ref(): call `ref_transaction_add_update()` directly
  ref_transaction_update(): die on disallowed flags
  ref_transaction_add_update(): remove a check
  refs: tidy up and adjust visibility of the `ref_update` flags
  refs: rename constant `REF_NODEREF` to `REF_NO_DEREF`
  refs: rename constant `REF_ISPRUNING` to `REF_IS_PRUNING`
