refs: add a generic 'optimize' API
The existing `pack-refs` API is conceptually tied to the 'files'
backend, but its behavior is generic (e.g., it triggers compaction for
reftable). This naming is confusing.
Introduce a new generic refs_optimize() API that dispatches to a
backend-specific implementation via a new 'optimize' vtable method.
This lays the architectural groundwork for different reference backends
(like 'files' and 'reftable') to provide their own storage optimization
logic, which will be called from a single, generic entry point.
