fetch: no FETCH_HEAD display if --no-write-fetch-head
fetch-pack: remove no_dependents code
promisor-remote: lazy-fetch objects in subprocess
fetch-pack: do not lazy-fetch during ref iteration
fetch: only populate existing_refs if needed
fetch: avoid reading submodule config until needed
fetch: allow refspecs specified through stdin
negotiator/noop: add noop fetch negotiator
