http: use --stdin when getting dumb HTTP pack

When Git fetches a pack using dumb HTTP, it reuses the server's name for
the packfile (which incorporates a hash), which is different from the
behavior of fetch-pack and receive-pack.

A subsequent patch will allow downloading packs over HTTP(S) as part of
a fetch. These downloads will not necessarily be from a Git repository,
and thus may not have a hash as part of its name.

Thus, teach http to pass --stdin to index-pack, so that we have no
reliance on the server's name for the packfile.
