While authoring vcpkg_from_git to authenticated servers documentation,
@JavierMatosD and I discovered some failure modes that are not clear in
the output.
Example with REF set to a branch name:
```console
The port under test is:
vcpkg_from_git(
OUT_SOURCE_PATH out
URL https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg
REF 2024.01.12
)

CMake Error at scripts/cmake/vcpkg_from_git.cmake:142 (message):
After fetching 2024.01.12, the target ref 2024.01.12 appears inaccessible.
A common cause of this failure is setting REF to a named branch or tag
rather than a commit SHA. REF must be a commit SHA. If the git server
does not advertise commit SHAs (uploadpack.allowReachableSHA1InWant is
false), you can set FETCH_REF to a named branch in which the desired commit
SHA is in the history. For example, you may be able to fix this error by
changing "REF 2024.01.12" to "REF a-commit-sha FETCH_REF 2024.01.12". (git
rev-parse 2024.01.12 failed)
