update-ref: disallow "start" for ongoing transactions
It is currently possible to write multiple "start" commands into
git-update-ref(1) for a single session, but none of them except for the
first one actually have any effect.
Using such nested "start"s may eventually have a sensible effect. One
may imagine that it restarts the current transaction, effectively
emptying it and creating a new one. It may also allow for creation of
nested transactions. But currently, none of these are implemented.
Silently ignoring this misuse is making it hard to iterate in the future
if "start" is ever going to have meaningful semantics in such a context.
This commit thus makes sure to error out in case we see such use.
