* Special remotes now checksum content while it is being retrieved,
instead of in a separate pass at the end. This is supported for all
special remotes on Linux (except for web and bittorrent), and for a
few on other OSs (S3, bup, ddar, gcrypt).

The concurrency problem is fixed now.
As well as the web special remote, these do not do incremental hashing
still: directory, gitlfs, webdav, S3.
The ones that do are: external, adb, gcrypt, hook, rsync
The issue with directory etc is that they open the file
for write. This prevents tailVerify re-opening it for read, because the
haskell RTS actually does not allowing opening a file for read that it has
open for write.
