refs: move object peeling into "object.c"

Peeling an object has nothing to do with refs, but we still have the
code in "refs.c". Move it over into "object.c", which is a more natural
place to put it.

Ideally, we'd also move `peel_iterated_oid()` over into "object.c". But
this function is tied to the refs interfaces because it uses a global
ref iterator variable to optimize peeling when the iterator already has
the peeled object ID readily available.
