[PATCH 1/2] recv_sideband: Bands #2 and #3 always go to stderr

[Johannes Sixt <j6t@kdbg.org>]

This removes the last parameter of recv_sideband, by which the callers
told which channel bands #2 and #3 should be written to.

Sayeth Shawn Pearce:

   The definition of the streams in the current sideband protocol
   are rather well defined for the one protocol that uses it,
   fetch-pack/receive-pack:

     stream #1:  pack data
     stream #2:  stderr messages, progress, meant for tty
     stream #3:  abort message, remote is dead, goodbye!

Since both callers of the function passed 2 for the parameter, we hereby
remove it and send bands #2 and #3 to stderr explicitly using fprintf.

This has the nice side-effect that these two streams pass through our
ANSI emulation layer on Windows.

 This patch has an updated commit message and this small change:

  				} else {
  					int l = brk ? brk : len;
 -					if (l > 0)
 -						fprintf(stderr, "%.*s", l, b);
 +					fprintf(stderr, "%.*s", l, b);
  					len -= l;
  				}

 I also has undergone some practical tests in addition to the
 test suite.
