Merge branch 'tb/filter-alternate-refs'

When pushing into a repository that borrows its objects from an
alternate object store, "git receive-pack" that responds to the
push request on the other side lists the tips of refs in the
alternate to reduce the amount of objects transferred.  This
sometimes is detrimental when the number of refs in the alternate
is absurdly large, in which case the bandwidth saved in potentially
fewer objects transferred is wasted in excessively large ref
advertisement.  The alternate refs that are advertised are now
configurable with a pair of configuration variables.

* tb/filter-alternate-refs:
  transport.c: introduce core.alternateRefsPrefixes
  transport.c: introduce core.alternateRefsCommand
  transport.c: extract 'fill_alternate_refs_command'
  transport: drop refnames from for_each_alternate_ref
