And even for an isolated group where everybody knows that
everybody else runs DAV-enabled clients, they need info/refs
prepared for ls-remote and git-fetch script, which means you
will run update-server-info to keep objects/info/packs up to
date.

Nick, do you see holes in my logic?

http-fetch.c: drop remote_ls()

While doing remote_ls() over DAV potentially allows the server
side not to keep objects/info/pack up-to-date, misconfigured or
buggy servers can silently ignore or not to respond to DAV
requests and makes the client hang.

The server side (unfortunately) needs to run git-update-server-info
even if remote_ls() removes the need to keep objects/info/pack file
up-to-date, because the caller of git-http-fetch (git-fetch) and other
clients that interact with the repository (e.g. git-ls-remote) need to
read from info/refs file (there is no code to make that unnecessary by
using DAV yet).

Perhaps the right solution in the longer-term is to make info/refs
also unnecessary by using DAV, and we would want to resurrect the
code this patch removes when we do so, but let's drop remote_ls()
implementation for now.  It is causing problems without really
helping anything yet.

git will keep it for us until we need it next time.
