Fix a bug that could make resuming a download from the web fail when the
entire content of the file is actually already present locally.
What a mess that Request can throw exceptions or not, depending on how
it's configured. Makes it very hard if you need to handle some specific
http status codes in a function like this! Implementing everything two
ways did not seem appealing, if possible at all, so I decided to
override the Request if it did come configured to throw exception on
non-2xx http status. Other exceptions, like from http-client-restricted,
or due to a redirect to a non-http url, still get thrown.

Prevent windows assistant from trying (and failing) to upgrade itself,
which has never been supported on windows.
The new windows build is made with UPGRADE_LOCATION set, which enabled this
code path that had never run on windows before, and doesn't work. I don't
want to try to support self-upgrade on windows, or generally on other OS's
than the ones where its working, so added a check for that. This way the
build can keep setting UPGRADE_LOCATION and if some later git-annex does
learn how to upgrade itself on some OS, it won't need changing the build
setup.
Warn when adding a annex symlink or pointer file that uses a key that is
not known to the repository, to prevent confusion if the user has copied it
from some other repository.

All properties changed to use them, except for
prop_encode_c_decode_c_roundtrip, which already filtered to ascii
for other reasons.
A few modules had to be split out, because Setup does not build-depend
on QuickCheck.
