completion: improve existence check for pseudo-refs

Improve the existence check along the following lines: - Stop stripping the "ref :" prefix and compare to the expected value directly. This allows us to drop a now-unused variable that was previously leaking into the user's shell. - Mark the "head" variable as local so that we don't leak its value into the user's shell. - Stop manually handling the `-C $__git_repo_path` option, which the `__git ()` wrapper aleady does for us. - In simlar spirit, stop redirecting stderr, which is also handled by the wrapper already.
