info: When used with an exporttree remote, includes an "exportedtree" info,
which is the tree last exported to the remote. During an export conflict,
multiple values will be listed.

When an export conflict prevents accessing a special remote, be clearer
about what the problem is and how to resolve it.

Block other threads while the export database is being constructed (or
updated) by the first thread to try to access it.

Made it impossible to recover from setting a bad value since enableremote
to change it would crash.

Make exporttree=yes remotes that are appendonly not be untrusted, and not force
verification of content, since the usual concerns about losing data when an
export is updated by someone else don't apply.
Note that all the remote operations on keys are left as usual for
appendonly export remotes, except for storing content.

Now when one repository has exported a tree, another repository can get
files from the export, after syncing.
There's a bug: While the database update works, somehow the database on
disk does not get updated, and so the database update is run the next
time, etc. Wasn't able to figure out why yet.

Use ExportTree rather than ExportedLocation for retrieveKeyFile and
checkPresent. When another remote exported the content, ExportTree will
be populated, but ExportedLocation will not be.
It would be possible to implement storeKey to exports as well, but it
risks performing a lot of unncessary work when another repository
already stored the key on the export and the local repository doesn't
know about it.
The only way to avoid that work would be for storeKey to use checkPresentExport
before uploading. But, the other repository could have changed the
exported tree as well, so that can't be trusted, and if it were used in
storeKey, could result in bad information getting into the location log.

New table needed to look up what filenames are used in the currently
exported tree, for reasons explained in export.mdwn.
Also, added smart constructors for ExportLocation and ExportDirectory to
make sure they contain filepaths with the right direction slashes.
And some code refactoring.

There does not seem to be a use case for supporting that, and it would
need a lot of complication to support it in a way that allows eventual
consistency when two repositories are updating the same export.

The subtle part of this is what happens when the remote fails to remove
an empty directory. The removal from the export needs to fail in that
case, so the removal will be tried again later. However, removeExportLocation
has already been run and changed the export db, so if the next run
checks getExportLocation, it might decide nothing remains to be done,
leaving the empty directory.
Dealt with that by making removeEmptyDirectories, handle a failure
by calling addExportLocation, reverting the database changes so the next
run will be guaranteed to try deleting the empty directory again.

Not yet called by Command.Export.
WebDAV needs this to clean up empty collections. Also, example.sh turned
out to not be cleaning up directories when removing content
from them, so it made sense for it to use this.
Remote.Directory did not need it, and since its cleanup method for empty
directories is more efficient than what Command.Export will need to do
to find empty directories, it uses Nothing so that extra work can be
avoided.

Don't allow "exporttree=yes" to be set when the special remote
does not support exports. That would be confusing since the user would
set up a special remote for exports, but `git annex export` to it would
later fail.

Straightforward enough, except for the needed belt-and-suspenders sanity
checks to avoid foot shooting due to exports not being key/value stores.
* Even when annex.verify=false, always verify from exports.
* Only get files from exports that use a backend that supports
checksum verification.
* Never trust exports, even if the user says to, because then
`git annex drop` would drop content if the export seemed to contain
a copy.

* Only export to remotes that were initialized to support it.
* Prevent storing key/value on export remotes.
* Prevent enabling exporttree=yes and encryption in the same remote.
SetupStage Enable was changed to take the old RemoteConfig.
This allowed only setting exporttree when initially setting up a
remote, and not configuring it later after stuff might already be stored
in the remote.
Went with =yes rather than =true for consistency with other parts of
git-annex. Changed docs accordingly.

This will allow disabling exports for remotes that are not configured to
allow them. Also, exportSupported will be useful for the external
special remote to probe.
