remote-curl: error on incomplete packet
Currently, remote-curl acts as a proxy and blindly forwards packets
between an HTTP server and fetch-pack. In the case of a stateless RPC
connection where the connection is terminated with a partially written
packet, remote-curl will blindly send the partially written packet
before waiting on more input from fetch-pack. Meanwhile, fetch-pack will
read the partial packet and continue reading, expecting more input. This
results in a deadlock between the two processes.
For a stateless connection, inspect packets before sending them and
error out if a packet line packet is incomplete.
