Do not allow ".lock" at the end of any refname component

Allowing any refname component to end with ".lock" is looking for trouble; for example, $ git br foo.lock/bar $ git br foo fatal: Unable to create '[...]/.git/refs/heads/foo.lock': File exists. Therefore, do not allow any refname component to end with ".lock". Signed-off-by: Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
