RefDirectory.exactRef: Do not ignore symrefs to unborn branch

When asked to read a symref pointing to a branch-yet-to-be-born (such
as HEAD in a newly initialized repository), DfsRepository and
FileRepository return different results.

FileRepository:

	exactRef("HEAD") => null

DfsRepository:

	exactRef("HEAD") => SymbolicRef[HEAD -> refs/heads/master=00000000]

getRef("HEAD") returns the same as DfsRepository's exactRef in both
backends.

The intended behavior is the DfsRepository one: exactRef() is supposed
to be like getRef(), but more exact because it doesn't need to
traverse the search path.

The discrepancy is because DfsRefDatabase implements exactRef()
directly with the intended semantics, while RefDirectory uses a
fallback implementation built on top of getRefs().  getRefs() skips
symrefs to an unborn branch.

Override the fallback implementation with a correct implementation
that is similar to getRef() to avoid this.  A followup change will fix
the fallback.
