Introduce the transport-helper capability 'stateless-connect'.  This
capability indicates that the transport-helper can be requested to run
the 'stateless-connect' command which should attempt to make a
stateless connection with a remote end.  Once established, the
connection can be used by the git client to communicate with
the remote end natively in a stateless-rpc manner as supported by
protocol v2.  This means that the client must send everything the server
needs in a single request as the client must not assume any
state-storing on the part of the server or transport.

If a stateless connection cannot be established then the remote-helper
will respond in the same manner as the 'connect' command indicating that
the client should fallback to using the dumb remote-helper commands.

Please add documentation for this command to
Documentation/gitremote-helpers.txt.

That helps reviewers, since it means reviewers can get a sense of what
the interface is meant to be.  It helps remote helper implementers as
well: it tells them what they can rely on and what can't rely on in
this interface.  For the same reason it helpers remote helper callers
as well.

Thanks,
