fetch: handle overlaping refspecs on --prune

We need to consider that a remote-tracking branch may match more than
one rhs of a fetch refspec. In such a case, it is not enough to stop at
the first match but look at all of the matches in order to determine
whether a head is stale.

To this goal, introduce a variant of query_refspecs which returns all of
the matching refspecs and loop over those answers to check for
staleness.
