Fail properly when cloning from invalid HTTP URL

Currently, when cloning from invalid HTTP URL, git clone will possibly
return curl error, then a confusing message about remote HEAD and then
return success and leave an empty repository behind, confusing either
the end-user or the automated service calling it (think repo.or.cz).

This patch changes the error() calls in get_refs_via_curl() to die()s,
akin to the other get_refs_*() functions.
