Don't readers need the reason why is it a good thing to do explained
here?

Hmph.  The way this patch implements deref_without_lazy_fetch()
makes it hard to reuse in other contexts, as it mixes what is done
by mark_complete(), which is very much "git fetch" specific.

Would "git fetch" be the only user potentially benefit from being
able to dereference a tag that already exists locally and ignore
missing ones?  I wonder if teaching deref_tag() a new flag would be
a better alternative to keep the separation of concerns at different
layers.
