By default, show the remote-tracking references that could be pruned.
But if the user specifies --prune=<pattern>, then limit the output to
those matching pattern. And if the user specified --no-prune, then do
not look for stale remote-tracking references at all.

With `-n` option, the remote heads are not queried first with
`git ls-remote <name>`; cached information is used instead.
