check-ref-format --branch: strip refs/heads/ using skip_prefix

The expansion returned from strbuf_check_branch_ref always starts with
"refs/heads/" by construction, but there is nothing about its name or
advertised API making that obvious.  This command is used to process
human-supplied input from the command line and is usually not the
inner loop, so we can spare some cycles to be more defensive.  Instead
of hard-coding the offset strlen("refs/heads/") to skip, verify that
the expansion actually starts with refs/heads/.

[jn: split out from a larger patch, added explanation]
