Introduce the ls-refs server command. In protocol v2, the ls-refs
command is used to request the ref advertisement from the server. Since
it is a command which can be requested (as opposed to mandatory in v1),
a client can sent a number of parameters in its request to limit the ref
advertisement based on provided ref-patterns.

Commands are the core actions that a client wants to perform (fetch, push,
etc). Each command will be provided with a list capabilities and
arguments as requested by a client.

+ Ls-refs
+---------
+
+Ls-refs is the command used to request a reference advertisement in v2.
+Unlike the current reference advertisement, ls-refs takes in parameters
+which can be used to limit the refs sent from the server.
+
+Ls-ref takes in the following parameters wraped in packet-lines:
+
+ symrefs: In addition to the object pointed by it, show the underlying
+ ref pointed by it when showing a symbolic ref.
+ peel: Show peeled tags.
+ ref-pattern <pattern>: When specified, only references matching the
+ given patterns are displayed.
+
+The output of ls-refs is as follows:
+
+ output = *ref
+ flush-pkt
+ ref = PKT-LINE((tip | peeled) LF)
+ tip = obj-id SP refname (SP symref-target)
+ peeled = obj-id SP refname "^{}"
+
+ symref = PKT-LINE("symref" SP symbolic-ref SP resolved-ref LF)
+ shallow = PKT-LINE("shallow" SP obj-id LF)
