rclone special remote

Browse source 
Added rclone special remote, which can be used without needing to install
the git-annex-remote-rclone program. This needs a new version of rclone,
which supports "rclone gitannex".

This is implemented as a variant of an external special remote, that
runs "rclone gitannex" instead of the usual git-annex-remote- command.
Parameterized Remote.External to support that.

That list is regularly expanding.
git-annex supports all of those through
the use of the [rclone special remote](https://github.com/DanielDent/git-annex-remote-rclone).
There are two ways to use rclone as a git-annex special remote.
Alternatively, rclone recently gained support for being used as a special
remote on its own, without needing installation of the above program.
For documentation on using rclone that way, see the output of
`rclone gitannex -h` or [here](//github.com/rclone/rclone/blob/master/cmd/gitannex/gitannex.md).
1. Install [git-annex-remote-rclone](https://github.com/DanielDent/git-annex-remote-rclone).
This will work with any versions of rclone and git-annex.
2. With a recent version of rclone and git-annex, it is not necessary to
install anything else, just use `git-annex initremote type=rclone ...`
See their documentation for more concrete examples.
