log: handle broken HEAD in decoration check

The resolve_ref_unsafe() function may return NULL even with
a REF_ISSYMREF flag if a symref points to a broken ref. As a
result, it's possible for the decoration code's "is this
branch the current HEAD" check to segfault when it passes
the NULL to starts_with().

This is unlikely in practice, since we can only reach this
code if we already resolved HEAD to a matching sha1 earlier.
But it's possible if HEAD racily becomes broken, or if
there's a transient filesystem error.

We can fix this by returning early in the broken case, since
NULL could not possibly match any of our branch names.
