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.

The GIT_TEST_PROTOCOL_VERSION environment variable can be used to
upgrade the version of Git protocol used in tests. If both
GIT_TEST_PROTOCOL_VERSION and 'protocol.version' are set, the higher
value wins.
For usage within tests, these semantics are too complex. Instead,
always use the value from protocol.version configuration when it is
set, falling back to GIT_TEST_PROTOCOL_VERSION. This way, the envvar
provides a reliable preview of what will happen if the default
protocol version is changed.

Define a GIT_TEST_PROTOCOL_VERSION environment variable meant to be used
from tests. When set, this ensures protocol.version is at least the
given value, allowing the entire test suite to be run as if this
configuration is in place for all repositories.
As of this patch, all tests pass whether GIT_TEST_PROTOCOL_VERSION is
unset or set to 0. Some tests fail when GIT_TEST_PROTOCOL_VERSION is set
to 1 or 2, but this will be dealt with in subsequent patches.
This is based on work by Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason.

Introduce protocol_v2, a new value for 'enum protocol_version'.
Subsequent patches will fill in the implementation of protocol_v2.

Create protocol.{c,h} and provide functions which future servers and
clients can use to determine which protocol to use or is being used.
Also introduce the 'GIT_PROTOCOL' environment variable which will be
used to communicate a colon separated list of keys with optional values
to a server. Unknown keys and values must be tolerated. This mechanism
is used to communicate which version of the wire protocol a client would
like to use with a server.
