refspec: remove global tag refspec structure

We have a global tag refspec structure that is used by both git-clone(1)
and git-fetch(1). Initialization of the structure will break once we
enable `-Wwrite-strings`, even though the breakage is harmless. While we
could just add casts, the structure isn't really required in the first
place as we can simply initialize the structures at the respective
callsites.

Refactor the code accordingly.
