Elijah Newren e5a3a134b1 filter-repo: retain refs that happen to point at commits that become empty
It may be that the only time a reference is shown in the fast-export stream
is for a commit which will become empty due to the filtering.  We do not
want such refs to be left out and thus not be updated; we want them to
instead be set to the nearest non-empty ancestor.  Only if it has no
non-empty ancestor would we want it to be stripped out.
