fetch: pass refspec to http server
When fetching over http, send the requested refspec to the server. The server will then only send refs matching that refspec. It is permitted for old servers to ignore that parameter, and the client will automatically handle this. When the server has many refs, and the client only wants a few, this can save bandwidth and reduce fetch latency.
