refs: pseudorefs are no refs
The `is_root_ref()` function will happily clarify a pseudoref as a root
ref, even though pseudorefs are no refs. Next to being wrong, it also
leads to inconsistent behaviour across ref backends: while the "files"
backend accidentally knows to parse those pseudorefs and thus yields
them to the caller, the "reftable" backend won't ever see the pseudoref
at all because they are never stored in the "reftable" backend.
Fix this issue by filtering out pseudorefs in `is_root_ref()`.
