fetch: send server options when using protocol v2
Teach fetch to optionally accept server options by specifying them on the cmdline via '-o' or '--server-option'. These server options are sent to the remote end when performing a fetch communicating using protocol version 2. If communicating using a protocol other than v2 the provided options are ignored and not sent to the remote end.
