fetch-pack: in protocol v2, reset in_vain upon ACK

In the function process_acks() in fetch-pack.c, the variable
received_ack is meant to track that an ACK was received, but it was
never set. This results in negotiation terminating prematurely through
the in_vain counter, when the counter should have been reset upon every
ACK.

Therefore, reset the in_vain counter upon every ACK.
