Three "missing reference" tests in 't5500-fetch-pack.sh' fail when the
test script is run with '-x' tracing (and using a shell other than a
Bash version supporting BASH_XTRACEFD). The reason for those failures
is that the tests check a subshell's stderr, which includes the trace
of executing commands in that subshell as well, throwing off the
comparison with the expected output.

Save the stderr of 'git fetch-pack' only instead of the whole
subshell, so it remains free from tracing output.

After this change t5500 passes with '-x', even when running with
/bin/sh.
