Running git clone --single-branch --mirror -b TAGNAME previously
triggered the following error message:

        fatal: multiple updates for ref 'refs/tags/TAGNAME' not allowed.

This error condition is handled in files_initial_transaction_commit().

42c7f7ff9 ("commit_packed_refs(): remove call to `packed_refs_unlock()`", 
2017-06-23)
introduced incorrect unlocking in the error path of this function,
which changes the error message to

        fatal: BUG: packed_refs_unlock() called when not locked

Move the call to packed_refs_unlock() above the "cleanup:" label
since the unlocking should only be done in the last error path.
