ref-filter: add support for %(contents:size)
It's useful and efficient to be able to get the size of the
contents directly without having to pipe through `wc -c`.
Also the result of the following:
`git for-each-ref --format='%(contents)' refs/heads/my-branch | wc -c`
is off by one as `git for-each-ref` appends a newline character
after the contents, which can be seen by comparing its output
with the output from `git cat-file`.
As with %(contents), %(contents:size) is silently ignored, if a
ref points to something other than a commit or a tag:
```
$ git update-ref refs/mytrees/first HEAD^{tree}
$ git for-each-ref --format='%(contents)' refs/mytrees/first
$ git for-each-ref --format='%(contents:size)' refs/mytrees/first
```
