connected: verify promisor-ness of partial clone

Commit dfa33a298d ("clone: do faster object check for partial clones",
2019-04-21) optimized the connectivity check done when cloning with
--filter to check only the existence of objects directly pointed to by
refs. But this is not sufficient: they also need to be promisor objects.
Make this check more robust by instead checking that these objects are
promisor objects, that is, they appear in a promisor pack.
