connect: tighten check for unexpected early hang up
A server hanging up immediately to mark access being denied does not send any .have refs, shallow lines, or anything else before hanging up. If the server has sent anything, then the hangup is unexpected. That is, if the server hangs up after a shallow line but before sending any refs, then git should tell me so: fatal: The remote end hung up upon initial contact instead of suggesting an access control problem: fatal: Could not read from remote repository. Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository exists. Noticed while examining this code. This case isn't likely to come up in practice but tightening the check makes the code easier to read and manipulate.
