Jeff King 0220461071 repository: mark the "refs" pointer as private
The "refs" pointer in a struct repository starts life as NULL, but then
is lazily initialized when it is accessed via get_main_ref_store().
However, it's easy for calling code to forget this and access it
directly, leading to code which works _some_ of the time, but fails if
it is called before anybody else accesses the refs.

This was the cause of the bug fixed by 5ff4b920eb (sha1-name: do not
assume that the ref store is initialized, 2020-04-09). In order to
prevent similar bugs, let's more clearly mark the "refs" field as
private.

In addition to helping future code, the name change will help us audit
any existing direct uses. Besides get_main_ref_store() itself, it turns
out there is only one. But we know it's OK as it is on the line directly
after the fix from 5ff4b920eb, which will have initialized the pointer.
However it's still a good idea for it to model the proper use of the
accessing function, so we'll convert it.
