Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason 5b8754043c refs debug: add a wrapper for "read_symbolic_ref"
In cd475b3b03 (refs: add ability for backends to special-case reading
of symbolic refs, 2022-03-01) when the "read_symbolic_ref" callback
was added we'd fall back on "refs_read_raw_ref" if there wasn't any
backend implementation of "read_symbolic_ref".

As discussed in the preceding commit this would only happen if we were
running the "debug" backend, e.g. in the "setup for ref completion"
test in t9902-completion.sh with:

    GIT_TRACE_REFS=1 git fetch --no-tags other

Let's improve the trace output, but and also eliminate the
now-redundant refs_read_raw_ref() fallback case. As noted in the
preceding commit the "packed" backend will never call
refs_read_symbolic_ref() (nor is it ever going to). For any future
backend such as reftable it's OK to ask that they either implement
this (or a wrapper) themselves.
