cmd_ls_remote() was calling transport_get() with a NULL remote and a non-NULL url in the case where it was run outside a git repository. This involved a bunch of ill-tested special cases. Instead, simply get the struct remote for the URL with remote_get(), which works fine outside a git repository, and can also take global options into account. This fixes a tiny and obscure bug where "git ls-remote" without a repo didn't support global url.*.insteadOf, even though "git clone" and "git ls-remote" in any repo did. Also, enforce that all callers provide a struct remote to transport_get().
