The formerly implemented algorithm behaved differently to
remote.c:remote_get() at least for remotes that contain a slash. While the
former just assumes a/b is a path the latter checks the config for
remote."a/b" first which is more reasonable.
This removes the last user of git-parse-remote.sh:get_data_source(), so
this function is removed.

ls-remote already runs a repository search unconditionally to learn
about remote nicknames and "[url] insteadof" shortcuts. Run that
search a little sooner, and now one can try
[pager]
ls-remote
to automatically paginate ls-remote output, or use repository-local
[core]
pager = whatever
with "git --paginate ls-remote <url>".

After 9c00de5 (ls-remote: fall-back to default remotes when no remote
specified), when no repository is specified, ls-remote may use
the URL/remote in the config "branch.<name>.remote" or the remote
"origin"; it may not be immediately obvious to the user which was used.
In such cases, print a simple "From <URL>" line to indicate which
repository was used. This message is similar to git-fetch's, and is
printed to stderr to avoid breaking existing scripts that depend on
ls-remote's output behaviour.
It can also be disabled with -q/--quiet.
Modify tests related to falling back on default remotes to check for
this as well, and add a test to check for suppression of the message.

Instead of breaking execution when no remote (as specified in the
variable dest) is specified when git-ls-remote is invoked, continue on
and let remote_get() handle it.
This way, we are able to use the default remotes (eg. "origin",
branch.<name>.remote), as git-fetch, git-push, and other users of
remote_get(), do.
If no suitable remote is found, exit with a message describing the
issue, instead of just the usage text, as we do previously.
Add several tests to check that git-ls-remote handles the
no-remote-specified situation.
Also add a test that "git ls-remote <pattern>" does not work; we are
unable to guess the remote in that situation, as are git-fetch and
git-push.
In that test, we are testing for messages coming from two separate
processes, but we should be OK, because the second message is triggered
by closing the fd which must happen after the first message is printed.

This shrinks the top-level directory a bit, and makes it much more
pleasant to use auto-completion on the thing. Instead of
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em buil<tab>
Display all 180 possibilities? (y or n)
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin-sh
builtin-shortlog.c builtin-show-branch.c builtin-show-ref.c
builtin-shortlog.o builtin-show-branch.o builtin-show-ref.o
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin-shor<tab>
builtin-shortlog.c builtin-shortlog.o
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin-shortlog.c
you get
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em buil<tab> [type]
builtin/ builtin.h
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin [auto-completes to]
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/sh<tab> [type]
shortlog.c shortlog.o show-branch.c show-branch.o show-ref.c show-ref.o
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/sho [auto-completes to]
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/shor<tab> [type]
shortlog.c shortlog.o
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/shortlog.c
which doesn't seem all that different, but not having that annoying
break in "Display all 180 possibilities?" is quite a relief.
NOTE! If you do this in a clean tree (no object files etc), or using an
editor that has auto-completion rules that ignores '*.o' files, you
won't see that annoying 'Display all 180 possibilities?' message - it
will just show the choices instead. I think bash has some cut-off
around 100 choices or something.
So the reason I see this is that I'm using an odd editory, and thus
don't have the rules to cut down on auto-completion. But you can
simulate that by using 'ls' instead, or something similar.
