fetch-pack: do not check links for partial fetch

When doing a partial clone or fetch with transfer.fsckobjects=1, use the
--fsck-objects instead of the --strict flag when invoking index-pack so
that links are not checked, only objects. This is because incomplete
links are expected when doing a partial clone or fetch.
