Add a new function copy_reflog_into_strbuf() that is a backend specific
optimized way to read the whole reflog as is into a strbuf so we can
copy it elsewhere instead of having to iterate over all the entries using
the iterators.
For the current type of refs backend that use files we simple read_in_full
the whole file into a strbuf. When we add other types of backends for refs
we will need to implement similarly optimized versions of this functions for
them.
