tmp-objdir: disable ref updates when replacing the primary odb

When creating a subprocess with a temporary ODB, we set the
GIT_QUARANTINE_ENVIRONMENT env var to tell child Git processes not
to update refs, since the tmp-objdir may go away.

Introduce a similar mechanism for in-process temporary ODBs when
we call tmp_objdir_replace_primary_odb. Now both mechanisms set
the disable_ref_updates flag on the odb, which is queried by
the ref_transaction_prepare function.

Peff's test case [1] was invoking ref updates via the cachetextconv
setting. That particular code silently does nothing when a ref
update is forbidden. See the call to notes_cache_put in
fill_textconv where errors are ignored.
