Running "git archive --remote" checks that we have at least one url for
the remote. It does so by looking at remote.url[0], but that won't work;
if we have no url at all, then remote.url will be NULL, and we'll
segfault.

Check url_nr instead, which is a more direct way of asking what we
want.

You can trigger the segfault like this:

  git -c remote.foo.vcs=bar archive --remote=foo

but I didn't bother adding a test. This is the tip of the iceberg for
no-url remotes, and a later patch will improve that situation. I just
wanted to clean up this bug so it didn't make further refactoring of
this code more confusing.

This code actually goes away in patch 10, but it's possible we'd want to
take a different approach there. So I preferred to fix this up front
anyway.
