Protocol v2 became the default in v2.26.0 via 684ceae32d (fetch: default
to protocol version 2, 2019-12-23). More widespread use turned up a
regression in negotiation. That was fixed in v2.27.0 via 4fa3f00abb
(fetch-pack: in protocol v2, in_vain only after ACK, 2020-04-27), but we
also reverted the default to v0 as a precuation in 11c7f2a30b (Revert
"fetch: default to protocol version 2", 2020-04-22).
In v2.28.0, we re-enabled it for experimental users with 3697caf4b9
(config: let feature.experimental imply protocol.version=2, 2020-05-20)
and haven't heard any complaints. v2.28 has only been out for 2 months,
but I'd generally expect people turning on feature.experimental to also
stay pretty up-to-date. So we're not likely to collect much more data by
waiting. In addition, we have no further reports from people running
v2.26.0, and of course some people have been setting protocol.version
manually for ages.
Let's move forward with v2 as the default again. It's possible there are
still lurking bugs, but we won't know until it gets more widespread use.
And we can find and squash them just like any other bug at this point.

Git 2.26 used protocol v2 as its default protocol, but soon after
release, users noticed that the protocol v2 negotiation code was prone
to fail when fetching from some remotes that are far ahead of others
(such as linux-next.git versus Linus's linux.git). That has been
fixed by 0b07eecf6ed (Merge branch 'jt/v2-fetch-nego-fix',
2020-05-01), but to be cautious, we are using protocol v0 as the
default in 2.27 to buy some time for any other unanticipated issues to
surface.
To that end, let's ensure that users requesting the bleeding edge
using the feature.experimental flag *do* get protocol v2. This way,
we can gain experience with a wider audience for the new protocol
version and be more confident when it is time to enable it by default
for all users in some future Git version.
Implementation note: this isn't with the rest of the
feature.experimental options in repo-settings.c because those are tied
to a repository object, whereas this code path is used for operations
like "git ls-remote" that do not require a repository.

This reverts commit 684ceae32dae726c6a5c693b257b156926aba8b7.
Users fetching from linux-next and other kernel remotes are reporting
that the limited ref advertisement causes negotiation to reach
MAX_IN_VAIN, resulting in too-large fetches.

The Git users at $DAYJOB have been using protocol v2 as a default for
~1.5 years now and others have been also reporting good experiences
with it, so it seems like a good time to bump the default version. It
produces a significant performance improvement when fetching from
repositories with many refs, such as
https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src.
This only affects the client, not the server. (The server already
defaults to supporting protocol v2.) The protocol change is backward
compatible, so this should produce no significant effect when
contacting servers that only speak protocol v0.

Git's protocol version 2 has been working well in production for over
a year. Simplify documentation by no longer referring to it as
experimental.
