Update receive-pack to use an atomic transaction iff the client negotiated
that it wanted atomic-push.
This leaves the default behavior to be the old non-atomic one ref at a
time update. This is to cause as little disruption as possible to existing
clients. It is unknown if there are client scripts that depend on the old
non-atomic behavior so we make it opt-in for now.

Later patch in this series also adds a configuration variable where you can
override the atomic push behavior on the receiving repo and force it
to use atomic updates always.

If it turns out over time that there are no client scripts that depend on the
old behavior we can change git to default to use atomic pushes and instead
offer an opt-out argument for people that do not want atomic pushes.
