libfetchers: handle nonexistent refs in GitLab repos more gracefully

Before:

$ nix flake lock --override-input nixpkgs gitlab:simple-nixos-mailserver/nixos-mailserver/nonexistent
fetching git input 'git+file:///home/linus/projects/lix'
fetching gitlab input 'gitlab:simple-nixos-mailserver/nixos-mailserver/nonexistent'
error: [json.exception.type_error.302] type must be string, but is null

After:

$ outputs/out/bin/nix flake lock --override-input nixpkgs gitlab:simple-nixos-mailserver/nixos-mailserver/nonexistent
fetching git input 'git+file:///home/linus/projects/lix'
fetching gitlab input 'gitlab:simple-nixos-mailserver/nixos-mailserver/nonexistent'
error:
       … while updating the lock file of flake 'git+file:///home/linus/projects/lix?ref=refs/heads/fix-gitlab-nonexistent&rev=915f16a619a36237a099b9aa9afed6d14ff613b4'

       … while updating the flake input 'nixpkgs'

       … while fetching the input 'gitlab:simple-nixos-mailserver/nixos-mailserver/nonexistent'

       error: No commits returned by GitLab API -- does the ref really exist?
