hideRefs: add support for matching full refs
In addition to matching stripped refs, one can now add hideRefs patterns that the full (unstripped) ref is matched against. To distinguish between stripped and full matches, those new patterns must be prefixed with a circumflex (^). This commit also removes support for the undocumented and unintended hideRefs settings ".have" (suppressing all "have" lines) and "capabilities^{}" (suppressing the capabilities line).
