Attempt to determine the remote's default branch name when performing a `scalar clone` using the vanilla Git protocols (not using the GVFS helper). Use ls-remote to lookup the HEAD ref on the remote, and parse the results. If the remote's HEAD is not a branch, or we fail to parse the output for any reason, consult Git itself for the default branch name as a fallback.
