[PATCH v3 5/6] fetch: reduce duplicate in ref update status lines with { -> }

Most of the time, ref update lines are
    variable-long-name -> fixed-remote/variable-long-name
With fetch.output set to "compact" such a line will be shown as
    { -> fixed-remote}/variable-long-name

This keeps the output aligned (because the variable part is always at the end) and reduce duplication.
