[PATCH v2 17/18] ref_transaction_commit(): delete extra "the" from error message

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

While we are in the area, let's remove a superfluous definite article
from the error message that is emitted when the reference cannot be
locked. This improves how it reads and makes it a bit shorter.
