[PATCH 7/7] Factor ref updating out of fetch_with_import

Also allow the new update_refs to actually update the refs set, this way the remote helper can set the value of previously unknown refs.

	This is the most important patch of the series, without it it
	is truly impossible to 'git clone hg::/path/to/hg/repo' since
	when we try to guess remote_head, we use
	find_ref_by_name(refs, "HEAD"), which will not find anything
	unless we set refs to the updated refs _after_ doing the
	import. This is a result of the fact that we do not know the
	value of the remote HEAD until after the import is complete.
