sync --content: Fix bug that caused transfers of files to be made to a git remote that does not have a UUID. This particularly impacted clones from gcrypt repositories.

Added guard in Annex.Transfer to prevent this problem at a deeper level.

I'm unhappy ith NoUUID, but having Maybe UUID instead wouldn't help either
if nothing checked that there was a UUID. Since there legitimately need to
be Remotes that do not have a UUID, I can't see a way to fix it at the type
level, short making there be two separate types of Remotes.

### Have you had any luck using git-annex before? (Sometimes we get tired of reading bug reports all day and a lil' positive end note does wonders)
Yes, everything works very nicely except this issue.

The bug is limited to `git annex sync --content` because it
didn't check if the git remote had no git-annex UUID before
sending files to it. Commands like `git annex copy` always check that the
remote has a UUID.
I've made `git annex sync --content` also check for a UUID. So, it won't
send any file contents to the origin remote in this configuration. I don't
think it makes sense to have git-annex auto-promote the origin remote to a
gcrypt special remote; you can just enableremote the special remote to make
git-annex send the files to it, properly encrypted.
When this bug occurs, git-annex actually doesn't remember that it's sent
the un-encrypted files to the remote. I suggest that you just delete all
files in the remote's annex/ directory of the gcrypt repository
whose names do not start with "GPGHMACSHA1", in order to clean up from this
bug.
----
The deeper problem is git-annex is able to transfer objects to a remote
that does not have a UUID at all. I've put in a guard at a deeper level to
prevent this whole class of problems.
