Commit walkers need to know the SHA-1 name of any objects they
have been asked to fetch while the native pack transport only
wants to know the names of the remote refs as the remote side
must do the name->SHA-1 translation.
Since we only have three fetch implementations and one of them
(bundle) doesn't even need the name information we can reduce
the code required to perform a fetch by having just one function
and passing of the filtered list of refs to be fetched. Each
transport can then obtain the information it needs from that ref
array to construct its own internal operation state.

The ALLOC_GROW macro is a shorter way to implement an array that
grows upon demand as additional items are added to it. We have
mostly standardized upon its use within git and transport.c is
not an exception.

This moves the code to call push backends into a library that can be
extended to make matching fetch and push decisions based on the URL it
gets, and which could be changed to have built-in implementations
instead of calling external programs.
