refs: add a backend method structure

Add a `struct ref_storage_be` to represent types of reference stores. In
OO notation, this is the class, and will soon hold some class
methods (e.g., a factory to create new ref_store instances) and will
also serve as the vtable for ref_store instances of that type.

As yet, the backends cannot do anything.
