upload-pack: optionally allow fetching from the tips of hidden refs
With uploadpack.allowtipsha1inwant configuration option set, future
versions of "git fetch" that allow an exact object name (likely to
have been obtained out of band) on the LHS of the fetch refspec can
make a request with a "want" line that names an object that may not
have been advertised due to transfer.hiderefs configuration.
