refs.c: add a strbuf argument to ref_transaction_commit for error logging

Add a strbuf argument to _commit so that we can pass an error string back to
the caller. So that we can do error logging from the caller instead of from
_commit.

Longer term plan is to first convert all callers to use onerr==QUIET_ON_ERR
and craft any log messages from the callers themselves and finally remove the
onerr argument completely.
