Update to a few other topics around 'git fetch'.

fetch doc: cross-link two new negotiation options
negotiator: unknown fetch.negotiationAlgorithm should error out
sent when negotiating the contents of the packfile to be sent by the
server. Set to "skipping" to use an algorithm that skips commits in an
effort to converge faster, but may result in a larger-than-necessary

+ packfile; The default is "default" which instructs Git to use the default algorithm
that never skips commits (unless the server has acknowledged it or one
of its descendants).
+ Unknown values will cause 'git fetch' to error out.

The argument to this option may be a glob on ref names, a ref, or the (possibly
abbreviated) SHA-1 of a commit. Specifying a glob is equivalent to specifying
this option multiple times, one for each matching ref name.
