Function was added in commit 2c982daa2e on October 5, 2011,
and removed in commit 41fb1ca0ec on October 29, 2012.
Given the length of time it's gone unused, it's safe to remove now.
Having the setting be different from calling its actions was not a great
idea and made for the sake of the wrong convenience.
Instead of that, accept either fetch options, push options or the
callbacks when dealing with the remote. The fetch options are currently
only the callbacks, but more options will be moved from setters and
getters on the remote to the options.
This does mean passing the same struct along the different functions but
the typical use-case will only call git_remote_fetch() or
git_remote_push() and so won't notice much difference.
The text progress and update_tips callbacks are already part of the
struct, which was meant to unify the callback setup, but the download
one was left out.
This allows us to add capabilitites to both at the same time, keeps
them in sync and removes a lot of code.
gitno_buffer now uses a callback to fill its buffer, allowing us to
use the same interface for git and http (which uses callbacks).
If it's not available, an error saying so will be returned when trying
to use a https:// URL.
This also unifies a lot of the network code to use git_transport in
many places instead of an socket descriptor.
Trying to send every single line immediately won't give us any speed
improvement and duplicates the code we need for other transports. Make
the git transport use the same buffer functions as HTTP.
This changes the git_remote_download() API, but the existing one is
silly, so you don't get to complain.
The new API allows to know how much data has been downloaded, how many
objects we expect in total and how many we've processed.
Taken mostly from the git transport's version, this can be used by any
transport that takes its pack data from the network.

1. The license header is technically not valid if it doesn't have a
copyright signature.
2. The COPYING file has been updated with the different licenses used in
the project.
3. The full GPLv2 header in each file annoys me.
There are many ways how a transport might negotiate with the server,
so instead of making it fit into the smart protocol model, let the
transport do its thing. For now, the git protocol limits itself to
send only 160 "have" lines so we don't flood the server.

Move the generation of the want-list to be done from the negotiate
function, and keep the filtered references inside the remote
structure.
