The following scenario was noticed:
If a node has a `rad/id` that is behind the one it is fetching from,
where a delegate was added, then verification will fail since it will
not fetch the new delegate -- if the scope is set to `Followed`.
Irregardless if the `rad/id` is ahead or behind, the reference should
be fetched to use as the delegates anchor since it will tell the
fetching side which delegates in can fetch from the remote. If any of
those delegates are missing then the remote is indeed lying.
This is safe since the `refs/rad/id` reference is only updated by
computing the COB rather than setting the OID, so it will not update
through the fetch protocol itself.

Update to git2-0.18.1, which also requires updating radicle-git-ext
and radicle-surf.

If a delegate is missing the default branch for a project certain
computations will fail, e.g. getting the canonical mainline branch.
One prevention for corrupting data is refusing to fetch a delegate
that does not have the default branch, when the repository is a
project. It is assumed that the repository is not a project if calling
`Doc::project` returns an error, since the error variants are not
found and parsing errors.
This is only checked in the case of a delegate since non-delegates are
safe to created COBs that don't require the default branch,
e.g. creating an issue.
The pack-writer perfectly consumes all input of the pack without
overshoot, which it can as it knows how many objects it ought
to read.
Thus, the last packetline of the pack is consumed to the last
byte without ever asking for more data that would then be denied
as the flush packet is encountered.
This needs to be accounted for in the calling code.

Ref announcements contain the namespace (NID) and the SHA of the new
`rad/sigrefs`. This information can be used by the fetch protocol to
fetch only those `Oid`s for those namespaces.
Add a new stage `SigrefsAnnouncement` that captures this behaviour by
only asking for the advertised `Oid`s and updating the corresponding
`rad/sigrefs` for each namespace. Note that this is a special case of
the `SpecialRefs` stage and so the protocol chooses between these two
by checking if there was announcement passed through. The following
stage, `DataRefs`, stays the same.
Note that this stage can only be activated via a `pull`, and `clone`
stays the same.

Previously, if a delegate's namespace was fetched and its rad/sigrefs
was behind the current state, then it would fail to perform the fetch.
Instead, when the ancestry path is checked the outcome can be used
during the update:
1. If the tip is equal, then the update can be marked as skipped.
2. If the tip is behind, then the update can be rejected, iff the
policy does not allow it.
3. If the tip is ahead, then the update is a fast-forward.
4. If the tip is diverged, then the update results in a failure, iff
the policy does not allow it.
The protocol also prunes any delegates's updates when the `rad/sigrefs`
is behind and returns an error if they are diverged.
For any non-delegates, it will simply prune them.

The `radicle-fetch` crate introduces a method for fetching from a
server using Git protocol V2, which provides the implementation
control over performing a sequence of fetches and validation over
domain data.
The protocol is built on top of the suite of Gitoxide crates[[0]]. It
builds wrappers on top of Gitoxide's refdb, odb, and transport layers
-- as well as taking the ls-refs and fetch code straight from the code
base to simplify for the needs of this crate.
