I think the missing bit of the justification here is that "--all" _does_
include HEAD in other contexts (like in git-log), and rev-parse should
probably match it.

This is probably the right thing to do. It's possible that some caller
of rev-parse really depends on "--all" meaning "just the refs", but I
kind of doubt it. Being in sync with the revision.c parser seems saner.
