builtin/fetch: fix leaking transaction with `--atomic` 

With the `--atomic` flag, we use a single ref transaction to commit all
ref updates in git-fetch(1). The lifetime of transactions is somewhat
weird: while `ref_transaction_abort()` will free the transaction, a call
to `ref_transaction_commit()` won't. We thus have to manually free the
transaction in the successful case.

Adapt the code to free the transaction in the exit path to plug the
resulting memory leak. As `ref_transaction_abort()` already freed the
transaction for us, we have to unset the transaction when we hit that
code path to not cause a double free.
