strbuf_check_ref_format(): expand only local branches

This function asks strbuf_branchname() to expand any @-marks
in the branchname, and then we blindly stick refs/heads/ in
front of the result. This is obviously nonsense if the
expansion is "HEAD" or a ref in refs/remotes/.

The most obvious end-user effect is that creating or
renaming a branch with an expansion may have confusing
results (e.g., creating refs/heads/origin/master from
"@{upstream}" when the operation should be disallowed).

We can fix this by telling strbuf_branchname() that we are
only interested in local expansions. Any unexpanded bits are
then fed to check_ref_format(), which either disallows them
(in the case of "@{upstream}") or lets them through
("refs/heads/@" is technically valid, if a bit silly).
