import: Added --no-content option, which avoids downloading files from a special remote

Browse source 
Only supported by some special remotes: directory
I need to check the rest and they're currently missing methods until I do.

git-annex sync --no-content does not yet use this to do imports

Hmm, --fast is not very descriptive for this when it's used with a
directory special remote, because hashing is almost as slow as copying.
Probably better to use --no-content and --content, same as sync.
(Though unfortunately with an opposite default though iirc there are plans
somewhere to transition sync to default to --content).

Note that, since exporttree remotes are always untrusted, after importing
--no-content from one, fsck is going to complain about it being the only
location with the content.
Which seems right.. That content could be overwritten at any time and the
only copy lost. But still worth keeping in mind.
