834cf34b26 transport: convert get_refs_list to take a list of ref prefixes
Convert the 'struct transport' virtual function 'get_refs_list()' to
optionally take an argv_array of ref prefixes.  When communicating with
a server using protocol v2 these ref prefixes can be sent when
requesting a listing of their refs allowing the server to filter the
refs it sends based on the sent prefixes.  This list will be ignored
when not using protocol v2.

e967ca3847 transport: make transport vtable more private
Move the definition of the transport-specific functions provided by
transports, whether declared in transport.c or transport-helper.c, into
an internal header. This means that transport-using code (as opposed to
transport-declaring code) can no longer access these functions (without
importing the internal header themselves), making it clear that they
should use the transport_*() functions instead, and also allowing the
interface between the transport mechanism and an individual transport to
independently evolve.

This is superficially a reversal of commit 824d5776c3 ("Refactor
struct transport_ops inlined into struct transport", 2007-09-19).
However, the scope of the involved variables was neither affected nor
discussed in that commit, and I think that the advantages in making
those functions more private outweigh the advantages described in that
commit's commit message. A minor additional point is that the code has
gotten more complicated since then, in that the function-pointer
variables are potentially mutated twice (once initially and once if
transport_take_over() is invoked), increasing the value of corralling
them into their own struct.
