Since commits a2d725b7 (Use an external program to implement fetching
with curl, 2009-08-05) and c9e388bb (Make the
"traditionally-supported" URLs a special case, 2009-09-03) remote
transport helpers like 'remote-ftp' and 'remote-curl' are offered by the
completion script as available subcommands.  Not good, since they are
helpers, therefore should not be offered, so filter them out.

Maybe maint-worthy?  1.6.5 was the first release with this bug, but
nobody complained since then.
