There are several uses of the magic number "line+45" when
parsing ACK lines from the server, and it's rather unclear
why 45 is the correct number. We can make this more clear by
keeping a running pointer as we parse, using skip_prefix to
jump past the first "ACK ", then adding 40 to jump past
get_sha1_hex (which is still magical, but hopefully 40 is
less magical to readers of git code).

Note that this actually puts us at line+44. The original
required some character between the sha1 and further ACK
flags (it is supposed to be a space, but we never enforced
that). We start our search for flags at line+44, which
meanas we are slightly more liberal than the old code.

I actually think we could tighten this even more and drop the strstrs,
too, like:

  arg += 40;
  if (*arg++ != ' ')
        return ACK;
  if (!strcmp(arg, "continue"))
        return ACK_continue;

and so on. But I wasn't sure if there was a reason for the use of
strstr. According to pack-protocol.txt, we would only get one at a time,
and always with a single space between them.
