Here's a version which is less faithful, but I think does sensible
things in all cases, and is much easier to follow. I get a little
nervous just because it tightens some cases, and one never knows if
other implementations might be relying on the looseness. E.g.:

  - in the current code we'd still drop back to dumb http if the server
    tells us "application/x-git-upload-pack" but the initial pktline
    doesn't start with "#" (even though if it _does_ have "#" at
    position 5 but isn't a valid pktline, we'd complain!)

  - right now the v2 protocol does not require the server to say
    "application/x-git-upload-pack" for the content-type

This patch tightens both of those (I also made a few stylistic tweaks,
and added the ERR condition to show where it would go). I dunno. Part of
me sees this as a nice cleanup, but maybe it is better to just leave it
alone. A lot of these behaviors are just how it happens to work now, and
not part of the spec, but we don't know what might be relying on them.
