The old version just looped over the references to delete, calling
delete_ref() on each one. But that has quadratic behavior, because
each call to delete_ref() might have to rewrite the packed-refs file.
This can be very expensive in a repository with a large number of
references. In some (admittedly extreme) repositories, we've seen
cases where the ref-pruning part of fetch takes multiple tens of
minutes.
Instead call delete_refs(), which (aside from being less code) has the
optimization that it only rewrites the packed-refs file a single time.
