refs: don't dereference on rename

Browse source 
When renaming refs, don't dereference either the origin or the destination
before renaming.

The origin does not need to be dereferenced because it is presently
forbidden to rename symbolic refs.

Not dereferencing the destination fixes a bug where renaming on top of
a broken symref would use the pointed-to ref name for the moved
reflog.

Add a test for the reflog bug.
