[PATCH v5 06/12] sequencer: add update-ref command

["Derrick Stolee via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>]

From: Derrick Stolee <derrickstolee@github.com>

Add the boilerplate for an "update-ref" command in the sequencer. This
connects to the current no-op do_update_ref() which will be filled in
after more connections are created.

The syntax in the todo list will be "update-ref <ref-name>" to signal
that we should store the current commit as the value for updating
<ref-name> at the end of the rebase.
