Actually allow TAG_FIXUP branches in fast-import
Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu> noticed while debugging a Git backend for cvs2svn that fast-import was barfing when he tried to use "TAG_FIXUP" as a branch name for temporary work needed to cleanup the tree prior to creating an annotated tag object. The reason we were rejecting the branch name was check_ref_format() returns -2 when there are less than 2 '/' characters in the input name. TAG_FIXUP has 0 '/' characters, but is technically just as valid of a ref as HEAD and MERGE_HEAD, so we really should permit it (and any other similar looking name) during import. New test cases have been added to make sure we still detect very wrong branch names (e.g. containing [ or starting with .) and yet still permit reasonable names (e.g. TAG_FIXUP).
