Some network protocols (e.g. native git://) are able to fetch more
than one ref at a time and reduce the overall transfer cost by
combining the requests into a single exchange. Instead of feeding
each fetch request one at a time to the helper, feed all of them
at once so the helper can decide whether or not it should batch them.
Because 'fetch' was already released in 1.6.5 we introduce the new
fetch-multiple capability/command to signal that the helper wants
to use batch oriented approach to fetching refs.
