From: Albert Cui <albertqcui@gmail.com>

Git appears to hang when downloading packfiles as this part of the fetch is silent, causing user confusion. This change implements progress for the number of packfiles downloaded; a progress display for bytes would involve deeper changes at the http-fetch layer instead of fetch-pack, the caller, so we do not do that in this patch.

    fetch: show progress for packfile uri downloads

    is silent, causing user confusion. This change implements progress for
    the number of packfiles downloaded; a progress display for bytes would
    involve deeper changes at the http-fetch layer instead of fetch-pack,
