[PATCHv2 07/10] teach get_remote_heads to read from a memory buffer

From
Jeff King <peff@peff.net>
Date

In-Reply-To
<20130218091203.GB17003@sigill.intra.peff.net>

Now that we can read packet data from memory as easily as a descriptor, get_remote_heads can take either one as a source. This will allow further refactoring in remote-curl.

Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net>

There aren't that many callers of get_remote_heads, so I just added the
optional parameters and tweaked each callsite. We can do it as a
get_remote_heads_from_buf wrapper function and leave them be, if we
want.
