In this comparison, we want to know whether the number of lines is
greater than 1. Our test_line_count function passes the first argument
as the comparison operator to test, so what we want is a numerical
comparison, not a string comparison. While this does not produce a
functional problem now, it could very well if we expected two or more
items, in which case the value "10" would not match when it should.
Furthermore, the "<" and ">" comparisons are new in POSIX 1003.1-2024
and we don't want to require such a new version of POSIX since many
popular and supported operating systems were released before that
version of POSIX was released.
Finally, zsh's builtin test operator does not like the greater-than sign
in "test", since it is only supported in the double-bracket extension.
This has been reported and will be addressed in a future version, but
since our code is also technically incorrect, as well as not very
compatible, let's fix it by using a numeric comparison.

Add glue code in 'refs/reftable-backend.c' which calls the reftable
library to perform the fsck checks. Here we also map the reftable errors
to Git' fsck errors.
Introduce a check to validate table names for a given reftable stack.
Also add 'badReftableTableName' as a corresponding error within Git. The
reftable specification mentions:
It suggested to use
${min_update_index}-${max_update_index}-${random}.ref as a naming
convention.
So treat non-conformant file names as warnings.
While adding the fsck header to 'refs/reftable-backend.c', modify the
list to maintain lexicographical ordering.
