Improve sync performance for pull-mirrors (#19125)

This addresses https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/issues/18352

It aims to improve performance (and resource use) of the `SyncReleasesWithTags` operation for pull-mirrors.

For large repositories with many tags, `SyncReleasesWithTags` can be a costly operation (taking several minutes to complete). The reason is two-fold:
    
1. on sync, every upstream repo tag is compared (for changes) against existing local entries in the release table to ensure that they are up-to-date.
    
2. the procedure for getting _each tag_ involves a series of git operations    
    ```bash
     git show-ref --tags -- v8.2.4477
     git cat-file -t 29ab6ce9f36660cffaad3c8789e71162e5db5d2f
     git cat-file -p 29ab6ce9f36660cffaad3c8789e71162e5db5d2f
     git rev-list --count 29ab6ce9f36660cffaad3c8789e71162e5db5d2f
     ```    

     of which the `git rev-list --count` can be particularly heavy.
    
This PR optimizes performance for pull-mirrors. We utilize the fact that a pull-mirror is always identical to its upstream and rebuild the entire release table on every sync and use a batch `git for-each-ref .. refs/tags` call to retrieve all tags in one go.
    
For large mirror repos, with hundreds of annotated tags, this brings down the duration of the sync operation from several minutes to a few seconds. A few unscientific examples run on my local machine:

- https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-boot (223 tags)
  - before: `0m28,673s`
  - after: `0m2,244s`
- https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes (890 tags)
  - before: `8m00s`
  - after: `0m8,520s`
- https://github.com/vim/vim (13954 tags)
  - before: `14m20,383s`
  - after: `0m35,467s`

 

I added a `foreachref` package which contains a flexible way of specifying which reference fields are of interest (`git-for-each-ref(1)`) and to produce a parser for the expected output. These could be reused in other places where `for-each-ref` is used.  I'll add unit tests for those if the overall PR looks promising.
