When fetch_pack() is invoked as part of another Git command (due to a
lazy fetch from a partial clone, for example), it uses object flags that
may already be used by the outer Git command.

The commit that introduced the lazy fetch feature (88e2f9ed8e
("introduce fetch-object: fetch one promisor object", 2017-12-05)) tried
to avoid this overlap, but it did not avoid it totally. It was
successful in avoiding writing COMPLETE, but did not avoid reading
COMPLETE, and did not avoid writing and reading ALTERNATE.

Ensure that no flags are written or read by fetch_pack() in the case
where it is used to perform a lazy fetch. To do this, it is sufficient
to avoid checking completeness of wanted refs (unnecessary in the case
of lazy fetches), and to avoid negotiation-related work (in the current
implementation, already, no negotiation is performed). After that was
done, the lack of overlap was verified by checking all direct and
indirect usages of COMPLETE and ALTERNATE - that they are read or
written only if no_dependents is false.

There are other possible solutions to this issue:

 (1) Split fetch-pack.{c,h} into a flag-using part and a non-flag-using
     part, and whenever no_dependents is set, only use the
     non-flag-using part.
 (2) Make fetch_pack() be able to be used with arbitrary repository
     objects. fetch_pack() should then create its own repository object
     based on the given repository object, with its own object
     hashtable, so that the flags do not conflict.

(1) is possible but invasive - some functions would need to be split;
and such invasiveness would potentially be unnecessary if we ever were
to need (2) anyway. (2) would be useful if we were to support, say,
submodules that were partial clones themselves, but I don't know when or
if the Git project plans to support those.
