The names we have at this stage are always full refnames, but we pass the ALLOW_ONELEVEL flag so that the function allows pseudorefs like MERGE_HEAD. We should instead pass the FULLY_QUALIFIED flag, which lets check_refname_format() do some extra syntactic checks on those pseudorefs. With this patch we'll refuse to read anything outside of refs/ that does not match the usual pseudoref syntax (all caps plus dashes). This should not be a loss of functionality (since such refs cannot be written as of the previous commit), but may protect us from mischief. For example, you can ask for silly things like "info/refs", "rr-cache//postimage", or "objects/info/commit-graphs/commit-graph-chain". It's doubtful you can really do anything _too_ terrible there, but it seems like peeking at random files in .git in response to possibly untrusted input is something we should avoid. Note that because we can't actually write such refs using Git, our tests have to munge the filesystem manually (and hence only run with the files backend). They also can only check that resolution fails (and not a specific error message), since we don't return the "bad name" detail all the way to the caller. The second test here, for "main-worktree/bad", actually fails even without this patch. The worktree-ref code enforces the pseudoref syntax itself via is_current_worktree_ref(), so the extra checks for this in check_refname_format() are redundant (though the parsing there is still necessary so we know _not_ to reject "main-worktree/HEAD"). But either way it's good to have a test which makes sure this remains the case.
