branch: stop modifying log_all_ref_updates variable

Browse Source 
In "branch.c" we modify the global `log_all_ref_updates` variable to
force creation of a reflog entry. Modifying global state like this is
discouraged, as it may have all kinds of consequences in other places of
our codebase.

Stop modifying the variable and pass the `REF_FORCE_CREATE_REFLOG` flag
instead. Setting this flag has a stronger meaning than setting the
config to `LOG_REFS_NORMAL`:

  - `LOG_REFS_NORMAL` will ask us to only create reflog entries for
    preexisting reflogs or branches, remote refs, note refs and HEAD.

  - `REF_FORCE_CREATE_REFLOG` will unconditionally create a reflog and
    is thus equivalent to `LOG_REFS_ALWAYS`.

But as we are in `create_branch()` and thus do not have to worry about
arbitrary references, but only about branches, `LOG_REFS_NORMAL` and
`LOG_REFS_ALWAYS` are indeed equivalent.
