Warning!  This patch isn't heavily-tested against remote
servers, it only helped me limp by on a server I was having
trouble with tonight.  I was barely awake when working on this
and have been living in a different timezone for more than a
week, so don't trust it too much unless you're already having
difficulty with some servers.

This way we can avoid the spawning of a new SVN::Ra session by
reusing the existing one.

The most problematic issue is that some svn servers disallow
too many connections from a single IP, so this will allow
git-svn to fetch from those repositories with a higher success
rate by using fewer connections.

This sometimes showed up as a new (and redundant)
[svn-remote "$parent_refname"] entry in $GIT_DIR/svn/.metadata.

 Note: there are still cases where git-svn can open more than
 one connection to the SVN server, which can make some SVN
 setups/administrators unhappy.  Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure
 I won't have time to properly fix all of these in the next few
 days.

 For now, if you get "connection closed unexpectedly" messages
 while fetching (and following parents), just restart git-svn
 and it'll pick up where it left off.
