[PATCH v2] Fix remote.<remote>.vcs

remote.<remote>.vcs causes remote->foreign_vcs to be set on entry to transport_get(). Unfortunately, the code assumed that any such entry is stale from previous round.

Fix this by making VCS set by URL to be volatile w.r.t. transport_get() instead.

Differences from first round:

This makes VCS setting apply to all URLs that don't explicitly override, instead of it applying to just the first one.
