Previously, when nothing could be read from the connections curl had open, git would just sleep unconditionally for 50ms. This patch changes this behavior and instead obtains the recommended timeout and the actual file descriptors from curl. This should eliminate time spent sleeping when data could actually be read/written on the socket.

It looks fine to me, from a libcurl perspective. I only have one comment about this:

+			curl_multi_fdset(curlm, &readfds, &writefds, &excfds, &max_fd);
+
+			select(max_fd+1, &readfds, &writefds, &excfds, &select_timeout);

At times, curl_multi_fdset() might return -1 in max_fd, as when there's no internal socket around to provide to the application to wait for.

Calling select() with max_fd+1 (== 0) will then not be appreciated by all implementations of select() so that case should probably also be covered by the 50ms sleep approach...
