[PATCH 5/8] [GSOC] ref-filter: teach get_object() return useful value

["ZheNing Hu via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@xxxxxxxxx>]

From: ZheNing Hu <adlternative@xxxxxxxxx>

Let `populate_value()`, `get_ref_atom_value()` and
`format_ref_array_item()` get the return value of `get_value()`
correctly. This can help us later let `cat-file --batch` get the
correct error message and return value of `get_value()`.
