Update receive-pack to use an atomic transaction IFF the client negotiated that it wanted atomic-push. This leaves the default behaviour to be the old non-atomic one ref at a time update. This is to cause as little disruption as possible to existing clients. It is unknown if there are client scripts that depend on the old non-atomic behaviour so we make it opt-in for now. Later patch in this series also adds a configuration variable where you can override the atomic push behaviour on the receiving repo and force it to use atomic updates always. If it turns out over time that there are no client scripts that depend on the old behaviour we can change git to default to use atomic pushes by default and instead offer an opt-out argument for people that do not want atomic updates at all.
