This changes the behavior of git fetch to respect the fetch refspecs configured on the remote. This is handy for projects which use customized fetch refspecs (e.g. only fetch certain patterns, but not all branches) but without having to remember and repeat all the patterns by hand on the CLI Fixes #5323

Now that #7275 it's worth mentioning that simple fetch refspecs will (now) be respected when other branches are otherwise not specified on the CLI

Checklist
Fixes #5323
Only fetch refspecs matching a very conservative set of patterns (i.e. no branch or remote renames, must be a forced refspec for
refs/heads/, etc) is supported and everything outside of that will be (warned about) and ignored. We can always expand these in the future but for now it would be good to avoid ambiguities about how branch renaming ought to be handled.If applicable:
