To this end, git-parse-remote is grown with a new kind of remote,
`builtin'. This returns all the local branches in
get_remote_default_refs_for_fetch. This is equivalent to having a
fake remote as:

[remote "local"]
url = .
fetch = refs/*

Based on a patch from Paolo Bonzini.

Can you please compare the times to do "git fetch ."?  The reason
to touch git-fetch.sh was an optimization that Junio requested.

I found my 2nd submission to be 20% faster than the first.

Yes. But this optimization is independent of this patch, as it already
exists without this (but it gets worse with this patch).

Also, I think, the split in fetch_main should be base on transport and
not on the definition of the remote.
