From: Jiang Xin <[e-mail]>

Add new service (git-upload-archive) support in remote-curl, so we can
support remote archive over HTTP/HTTPS protocols. Differences between
git-upload-archive and other services:

 1. The git-archive program does not expect to see protocol version and
    capabilities when connecting to remote-helper, so do not send them
    in remote-curl for the git-upload-archive service.

 2. We need to detect protocol version by calling discover_refs().
    Fallback to use the git-upload-pack service (which, like
    git-upload-archive, is a read-only operation) to discover protocol
    version.
