Change {pre,post}-receive hooks to use stdin

Sergey Vlasov, Andy Parkins and Alex Riesen all pointed out that it
is possible for a single invocation of receive-pack to be given more
refs than the OS might allow us to pass as command line parameters
to a single hook invocation.

We don't want to break these up into multiple invocations (like
xargs might do) as that makes it impossible for the pre-receive
hook to verify multiple related ref updates occur at the same time,
and it makes it harder for post-receive to send out a single batch
notification.

Instead we pass the reference data on a pipe connected to the
hook's stdin, supplying one ref per line to the hook.  This way a
single hook invocation can obtain an infinite amount of ref data,
without bumping into any operating system limits.
