Series For v2.35.0: refs: ab/refs-errno-cleanup fixup + remove "failure_errno" | expand

Commit Message

Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason Jan. 12, 2022, 12:36 p.m. UTC 
Remove the now-unused "failure_errno" parameter from the
refs_resolve_ref_unsafe() signature. In my recent 96f6623ada0 (Merge
branch 'ab/refs-errno-cleanup', 2021-11-29) series we made all of its
callers explicitly request the errno via an output parameter.

As that series shows all but one caller ended up passing in a
boilerplate "ignore_errno", since they only cared about whether the
return value was NULL or not, i.e. if the ref could be resolved.

There was one caller left in sequencer.c that used the
"failure_errno', but as of the preceding commit it uses a boilerplate
"ignore_errno" instead.

So let's remove this output parameter. Not only isn't it used now, but
it's unlikely that we'll want it again in the future. We'd like to
slowly move the refs API to a more file-backend independent way of
communicating error codes, having it use a "failure_errno" was only
the first step in that direction. If this or any other function needs
to communicate what specifically is wrong with the requested "refname"
it'll be better to have the function set some output enum of
well-defined error states than piggy-backend on "errno".
