fetch-pack: do not reset in_vain on non-novel acks
The MAX_IN_VAIN mechanism was introduced in commit f061e5f ("fetch-pack:
give up after getting too many "ack continue"", 2006-05-24) to stop ref
negotiation if a number of consecutive "have"s have been sent with no
corresponding new acks. This is to stop the client from digging too deep
in an irrelevant side branch in vain without ever finding a common
ancestor. A use case (as described in that commit) is the scenario in
which the local repository has more roots than the remote repository.
However, during a negotiation in which stateless RPCs are used,
MAX_IN_VAIN will (almost) never trigger (in the more-roots scenario
above and others) because in each new request, the client has to inform
the server of objects it already has and knows the server has (to remind
the server of the state), which the server then acks.
Make fetch-pack only consider, as new acks for the purpose of
MAX_IN_VAIN, acks for objects for which the client has never received an
ack before in this session.
