[00/10] add more ref consistency checks

Hi all:

This patch mainly does the following three things:

1. Add some extra checks which I have ignored in the previous patches
   for files-backend in
2. Add ref checks for packed-backend.
   1. Check whether the type of "packed-refs" is correct.
   2. Check whether the syntax of "packed-refs" is correct by using the
      rules from "packed-backend.c::create_snapshot" and
      "packed-backend.c::next_record".
   3. Check whether the pointed object exists and whether the
      "packed-refs" file is sorted.
3. Call "git refs verify" for "git-fsck(1)".

Although I am not mentored by Patrick and Karthik in this patch. I'd
like to add "Mentored-by" filed for them due to the reason that I
continue my GSoC work.

Thanks,
Jialuo
