Refresh 'objects' dir and retry if a loose object is not found
A new loose object may not be immediately visible on a NFS
client if it was created on another client. Refreshing the
'objects' dir and trying again can help work around the NFS
behavior.
Here's an E2E problem that this change can help fix. Consider
a Gerrit multi-primary setup with repositories based on NFS.
Add a new patch-set to an existing change and then immediately
fetch the new patch-set of that change. If the fetch is handled
by a Gerrit primary different that the one which created the
patch-set, then we sometimes run into a MissingObjectException
that causes the fetch to fail.
