[PATCH] cgit.c: use resolve_ref() to guess_defbranch()

[larsh at hjemli.net (larsh at hjemli.net)]

The resolve_ref() function handles reading of git- and filesystem
symbolic links (including proper whitespace trimming) and packed refs.
There's no point in reimplementing this function in cgit.

After deploying the wip-branch on hjemli.net, I noticed that the
default branch in the git.git repository wasn't correctly set. This was
due the HEAD symbolic ref having two trailing newlines, so I started
looking into how the git code handled this case and ended up with this
patch.
