The reference is only needed inside the function. We mistakenly
increased the reference counter causing the ODB not to get freed and
leaking descriptors.

Storing flushes in the refs vector doesn't let us recognize when the
remote is empty, as we'd always introduce at least one element into
it. These flushes aren't necessary, so we can simply ignore them.

Include tag

Also honor remote.$name.tagopt = --tags.

The local function works for simple cases, but we shouldn't reinvent
the wheel just for us.

Together with include-tag, this make us behave more like git. After a
fetch, try to create any tags the remote told us about for which we
have objects locally.

This tells the remote to send us any tags that point to objects that
we are downloading.

Indicate whether the error comes from the ref already existing or
elsewhere. We always perform the check and this lets the user write
more concise code.

The latter shouldn't be exposed and isn't used, git_refspec__parse
supersedes it.

revwalk: fix off-by-one error

Create a diff patch object as a replacement for iterators

Fixes #921.

There are a lot of places where the diff API gives the user access
to internal data structures and many of these were being exposed
through non-const pointers.  This replaces them all with const
pointers for any object that the user can access but is still
owned internally to the git_diff_list or git_diff_patch objects.

This will probably break some bindings...  Sorry!

This fixes all the bugs in the new diff patch code.  The only
really interesting one is that when we merge two diffs, we now
have to actually exclude diff delta records that are not supposed
to be tracked, as opposed to before where they could be included
because they would be skipped silently by `git_diff_foreach()`.
Other than that, there are just minor errors.

Replacing the `git_iterator` object, this creates a simple API
for accessing the "patch" for any file pair in a diff list and
then gives indexed access to the hunks in the patch and the lines
in the hunk.  This is the initial implementation of this revised
API - it is still broken, but at least builds cleanly.

Allow diff deltas to be accessed by index and make patch generation
explicit with hunk and line access by index as well.
