Colin Hinton 86129fddb7 fetch.c: defer fetch.followRemoteHEAD validation ...

The value of the fetch.followRemoteHEAD configuration variable is
validated while the configuration file is being parsed, which
produces a warning even when this particular "git fetch" invocation
will never consult it.

Store the raw config string instead, and resolve/validate it lazily
at the one place in do_fetch() that actually uses it, so a mistyped
value only warns, and a missing value only dies, when this fetch
would have consulted it.

remote.c's handle_config() has the same problem for
remote.<name>.followRemoteHEAD, but is left unaddressed here since
it touches shared remote-parsing infrastructure used well beyond
fetch. Leave a NEEDSWORK comment at remote.c:handle_config()
that has a defect similar to what is fixed by this patch,
so the remaining scope is easy to find for a follow-up patch.
