Yes, it would be easy for the client to abort if the server fails to
advertise a particular extension.

And the reverse (old client, new server) should work as well?

Yes. The server says "I know about gitrefs" and if the client does not
respond with "I also know about gitrefs", then the server can act
appropriately (e.g., for a fetch, bail if the fetched content includes
gitrefs).
