[v2,4/7] files-backend: extract out `create_symref_lock`

Commit Message

From: Karthik Nayak <[e-mail]>

The function `create_symref_locked` creates a symref by creating a
'<symref>.lock' file and then committing the symref lock, which creates
the final symref.

Split this into two individual functions `create_and_commit_symref` and
`create_symref_locked`. This way we can create the symref lock and
commit it at different times. This will be used to provide symref
support in `git-update-ref(1)`.
