refs API: make refs_read_raw_ref() not set errno

Add a "failure_errno" to refs_read_raw_ref(), his allows
refs_werrres_ref_unsafe() to pass along its "failure_errno", as a
first step before its own callers are migrated to pass it further up
the chain.

We are leaving out out the refs_read_special_head() in
refs_read_raw_ref() for now, as noted in a subsequent commit moving it
to "failure_errno" will require some special consideration.
