git: add references for Git pull request heads
When a pull request is created, stick a reference to it in the refs/pull
namespace, similarly to what GitHub does, and remove it when the pull
request is deleted. That reference guarantees the commits stay around
and don't get garbage-collected when a PR is rebased or revised.
Also, that makes it possible to access head of historic pull requests
using Git by fetching a ref from the source repository.
Unlike GitHub though, we don't put the ref into the destination repository
and don't copy commits there to prevent undesired repository growth.
Kallithea uses global pull request identifiers, so there should not be
any confusion as to what pull request the ref corresponds to.
We may later provide a shim to redirect users to the source repository
if that deems needed.

====================
Backing up Kallithea
====================
Settings
--------
Just copy your .ini file, it contains all Kallithea settings.
Whoosh index
------------
The Whoosh index is located in the ``data/index`` directory where you installed
Kallithea, i.e., the same place where the ini file is located
Database
--------
When using sqlite just copy kallithea.db.
Any other database engine requires a manual backup operation.
A database backup will contain all gathered statistics.
