While attempting to fix a reference negotiation bug in bundle-uri, we
identified that the fetch process lacks some crucial object validation
checks when processing bundles. The primary issues are:

 1. In the bundle-uri scenario, object IDs were not validated before writing
    bundle references. This was the root cause of the original negotiation
    bug in bundle-uri and could lead to potential repository corruption.
 2. The existing "fetch.fsckObjects" and "transfer.fsckObjects"
    configurations were not applied when directly fetching bundles or
    fetching with bundle-uri enabled. In fact, there were no object
    validation supports for unbundle.

The first patch addresses the bundle-uri negotiation issue by removing the
REF_SKIP_OID_VERIFICATION flag when writing bundle references.

Patches 2 through 3 extend verify_bundle_flags for bundle.c:unbundle to add
support for object validation (fsck) in fetch scenarios, mainly following
the suggestions from Junio and Patrick on the mailing list.
Thanks, this version looks good to me.

Patrick
