To write a bundle’s table of contents, the name passed on the command
line for each ref is needed.  Unfortunately, names passed through
stdin are put in a temporary buffer and then freed; the random
gibberish that tends to replace them does not look like a meaningful
ref name to bundle_list_refs(), so no valid toc entries are found and
‘git bundle --stdin’ thinks it has been asked to create an empty
bundle.

So teach the revision walker to keep rev names after reading them from
stdin.  This fixes ‘git bundle --stdin’ at the cost of a memory leak.
