Since git-remote always uses remote tracking branches, it
should be safe to always force updates of those branches.
I.e., we should generate
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/$remote/*
instead of
fetch = refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/$remote/*
This was the behavior of the perl version, which seems to
have been lost in the C rewrite.

This can happen if the arguments to git-remote add is switched by the
user, and git would only show an error if fetching was also requested.
Fix it by using the refspec parsing engine to check if the requested
name can be parsed as a remote before add it.
Also cleanup so that the "remote.<name>.url" config name buffer is only
initialized once.

Without this the output of 'git remote show' does not end with a new-line:

Tracked remote branches

For symbolic refs, a sane notion of being "stale" is that the ref
they point to no longer exists. Since this is checked already,
"remote show" does not need to show them at all.
Incidentally, this fixes the issue that "HEAD" was shown as a
stale ref by "remote show" in a freshly cloned repository.

When the other end has dangling symref, "git fetch" issues an error
message but that is not grave enough to cause the fetch process to fail.
As the result, the user will see something like this:
$ git remote update
error: refs/heads/2.0-uobjects points nowhere!
"remote update" used to report which remote it is fetching from, like
this:
$ git remote update
Updating core
Updating matthieu
error: refs/heads/2.0-uobjects points nowhere!
Updating origin
This reinstates the message "Updating <name>" in "git remote update".

"git remote add" can add a symbolic ref "HEAD", and "rm" should delete
it, too.

The rewrite in C inadvertently broke updating with remote groups: when you
pass parameters to "git remote update", it used to look up "remotes.<group>"
for every parameter, and interpret the value as a list of remotes to update.
Also, no parameter, or a single parameter "default" should update all
remotes that have not been marked with "skipDefaultUpdate".

Like in ls-remote, we have to disconnect the transport after getting
