refs: extract out `refs_create_refdir_stubs()`
For Git to recognize a directory as a Git directory, it requires the
directory to contain:
1. 'HEAD' file
2. 'objects/' directory
3. 'refs/' directory
Here, #1 and #3 are part of the reference storage mechanism,
specifically the files backend. Since then, newer backends such as the
reftable backend have moved to using their own path ('reftable/') for
storing references. But to ensure Git still recognizes the directory as
a Git directory, we create stubs.
There are two locations where we create stubs:
- In 'refs/reftable-backend.c' when creating the reftable backend.
- In 'clone.c' before spawning transport helpers.
In a following commit, we'll add another instance. So instead of
repeating the code, let's extract out this code to
`refs_create_refdir_stubs()` and use it.
