In repository having large number of remote refs, because to check
existence of each refs in local repository, 'git fetch' ends up doing a
lot of lstat(2) calls to see if it exists in loose form, which makes it
slow.
This patch enumerates loose objects in hashmap beforehand and uses it to
check existence instead of using lstat(2) to improve performance of
fetch-pack for repositories having large number of remote refs compared
to the number of loose objects.
With this patch, the number of lstat(2) calls in `git fetch` is reduced
from 411412 to 13794 for chromium repository, it has more than 480000
remote refs.
I took time stat of `git fetch` disabling quickfetch, so that fetch-pack
runs, for chromium repository 3 time on linux with SSD.

`git fetch` on slow disk will be improved largely.
