fetch, remote: retain old OIDs when pruning refs

get_stale_heads() records the current value of each stale local ref in its
new_oid member. The pruning paths discard that value and request
unconditional deletion, so reference-transaction hooks receive a null old
OID.

Pass the recorded values into the deletion transactions. If a ref changes
after the stale scan, reject that deletion and preserve the new value.
Non-atomic pruning uses refs_delete_refs(), whose partial-failure mode still
deletes unaffected stale refs. An atomic fetch remains all-or-nothing.

Reuse values collected while finding stale refs, avoiding additional ref
reads. Avoid reporting deletion status when pruning encounters a rejected
update.
