Log ref updates to logs/refs/<ref>

If config parameter core.logAllRefUpdates is true or the log
file already exists then append a line to ".git/logs/refs/<ref>"
whenever git-update-ref <ref> is executed.  Each log line contains
the following information:

  oldsha1 <SP> newsha1 <SP> committer <LF>

where committer is the current user, date, time and timezone in
the standard GIT ident format.  If the caller is unable to append
to the log file then git-update-ref will fail without updating <ref>.

An optional message may be included in the log line with the -m flag.
