As it seems to be something that many people can't get over, reformat
all the files; as we're breaking things, whoever depended on 'next' will
have to take many changes into account anyway, so let's include this to
reduce the noise of incoming patches.
There's been some changes to the checkout strategy, especially the
SAFE_CREATE mode, which is now the RECREATE_MISSING flag, though that
shouldn't be necessary to use in the general case.
The largest changes come from the removal of the signture from
ref-modifying functions/methods and the removal of the reflog string in
all but those directly related to moving references.
While Go will assign the correct type to a const block when it
auto-creates the values, assigning makes the const be typeless and will
only gain it in each particular use.
Make each constant in the blocks have an assigned type.
The library stores error information in thread-local storage, which
means we need to make sure that the Go runtime doesn't switch OS
threads between the time we call a function and th time we attempt to
retrieve the error information.
