Always handle non-normal (per-worktree or pseudo) refs in the files
backend instead of alternate backends.
Sometimes a ref transaction will update both a per-worktree ref and a
normal ref. For instance, an ordinary commit might update
refs/heads/master and HEAD (or at least HEAD's reflog).
We handle three cases here:
1. updates to normal refs continue to go through the chosen backend
2. updates to non-normal refs with REF_NODEREF or to non-symbolic refs
are moved to a separate files backend transaction.
3. updates to symbolic refs are dereferenced to their base ref. The
update to the base ref then goes through the ordinary backend, while
the files backend is directly called to update the symref's reflog.
