refs.c: pass a skip list to name_conflict_fn

Allow passing a list of refs to skip checking to name_conflict_fn.
There are some conditions where we want to allow a temporary conflict and skip
checking those refs. For example if we have a transaction that
1, guarantees that m is a packed refs and there is no loose ref for m
2, the transaction will delete m from the packed ref
3, the transaction will create conflicting m/m

For this case we want to be able to lock and create m/m since we know that the
conflict is only transient. I.e. the conflict will be automatically resolved
by the transaction when it deletes m.
