remote: handle negative refspecs in git remote show

By default, the git remote show command will query data from remotes to show data about what might be done on a future git fetch. This process currently does not handle negative refspecs. This can be confusing, because the show command will list refs as if they would be fetched. For example if the fetch refspec "^refs/heads/pr/*", it still displays the following: * remote jdk19 Fetch URL: git@github.com:openjdk/jdk19.git Push URL: git@github.com:openjdk/jdk19.git HEAD branch: master Remote branches: master tracked pr/1 new (next fetch will store in remotes/jdk19) pr/2 new (next fetch will store in remotes/jdk19) pr/3 new (next fetch will store in remotes/jdk19) Local ref configured for 'git push': master pushes to master (fast-forwardable) Fix this by adding an additional check inside of get_ref_states. If a ref matches one of the negative refspecs, mark it as skipped instead of marking it as new or tracked. With this change, we now report remote branches that are skipped due to negative refspecs properly: * remote jdk19 Fetch URL: git@github.com:openjdk/jdk19.git Push URL: git@github.com:openjdk/jdk19.git HEAD branch: master Remote branches: master tracked pr/1 skipped pr/2 skipped pr/3 skipped Local ref configured for 'git push': master pushes to master (fast-forwardable) By showing the refs as skipped, it helps clarify that these references won't actually be fetched. This does not properly handle refs going stale due to a newly added negative refspec. In addition, git remote prune doesn't handle that negative refspec case either. Fixing that requires digging into get_stale_heads and handling the case of a ref which exists on the remote but is omitted due to a negative refspec locally. Add a new test case which covers the functionality above, as well as a new expected failure indicating the poor overlap with stale refs.
