send-pack: remove remote reference limit
When build a pack for a push we query the remote copy for existant heads. These are used to prune unnecessary objects from the pack. As we receive the remote references in get_remote_heads() we validate the reference names via check_ref() which includes a length check; rejecting those >45 characters in size. This is a miss converted change, it was originally designed to reject messages which were less than 45 characters in length (a 40 character sha1 and refs/) to prevent comparing unitialised memory. check_ref() now gets the raw length so check for at least 5 characters.
