use proot to support Android 8

Browse source 
runshell: Use proot when running on Android, to work around Android 8's
ill-advised seccomp filtering of system calls, including ones crucial for
reliable thread locking. (This will only work with termux's version of
proot.)

git-annex is not currently part of the Termux distribution, but it's easy
to install it. Paste these commands into Termux:
pkg install git wget tar coreutils
pkg install git wget tar coreutils proot
termux-setup-storage
cd
wget https://downloads.kitenet.net/git-annex/autobuild/armel/git-annex-standalone-armel.tar.gz

We now have a workaround that seems to work, `pkg install proot` and use
proot to run git-annex. Tomorrrow's daily build of the git-annex standalone
bundle will do that automatically.
