A more interesting use case, as there is no reason to expect that a
single server-option command line option may apply to all remotes,
would be to configure different server options for different remotes
via the new serverOption configuration, so that different server
options are used for different remotes.

If it happens that the same server option is applicable for all
remotes, it is reasonable to give --server-option from the command
line and expect it to be propagated down to subfetches, so
regardless of the "what happens when different remotes have
different options configured?" above, the change in this step looks
reasonable to me.
