In cfaff3aac (branch -m: allow renaming a yet-unborn branch, 2020-12-13) we added support for renaming an orphan branch, skipping rename_ref() if the branch to rename is an orphan branch, checking the current HEAD. But the orphan branch to be renamed can be an orphan branch in a different working tree than the current one, i.e. not the current HEAD. Let's make "ishead_reject_rebase_or_bisect_branch()" return a flag indicating if the returned value refers to an orphan branch, and use it to extend what we did in cfaff3aac, to all HEADs in the repository.
