We observed the following issue:
$ git tag -a v1.0 -m v1.0
$ git push origin tag v1.0
$ git ls-remote origin v1.0^{}
... empty result ...
On the server (Gerrit) side run git-gc to pack the refs:
$ git gc
Repeat the ls-remote from the client and the result is correct:
$ git ls-remote origin v1.0^{}

Unfortunately, the existing UploadPackTest didn't reveal this issue
although it provided the test case needed to do so: testV2LsRefsPeel.
This is because The UploadPackTest uses InMemoryRepository which
internally uses Dfs* implementations. The issue is only reproducible
when using the FileRepository.
It is a non-trivial task to refactor the UploadPackTest to work against
both InMemoryRepository and FileRepository and this change is not trying
to do that. This change creates a new test:
UploadPackLsRefsFileRepositoryTest and copies the necesssary code from
the UploadPackTest.
