fetch: drop unneeded NULL-check for `remote_ref`

Drop the `NULL` check for `remote_ref` in `update_local_ref()`. The function only has a single caller, and that caller always passes in a non-`NULL` value. This fixes a false positive in Coverity. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
