promisor-remote: lazy-fetch objects in subprocess
Teach Git to lazy-fetch missing objects in a subprocess instead of doing it in-process. This allows any fatal errors that occur during the fetch to be isolated and converted into an error return value, instead of causing the current command being run to terminate.
