git init learns a new argument --ref-storage. Presently, only
"files" is supported, but later we will add other storage backends.
When this argument is used, the repository's extensions.refStorage
configuration value is set (as well as core.repositoryformatversion),
and the ref storage backend's initdb function is used to set up the
ref database.
