The match_explicit_lhs function has all of the logic
necessary to verify the refspecs without actually doing any
work. This patch lets callers pass a NULL "match" pointer to
indicate they want a "verify only" operation.

For the most part, we just need to avoid writing to the NULL
pointer. However, we also have to refactor the
try_explicit_object_name sub-function; it indicates success by
allocating and returning a new ref. Instead, we give it an
"out" parameter for the match and return a numeric status.
