This also changes addunused to display the names of the files that it adds.
That seems like a general usability improvement, and not displaying the input
number does not seem likely to be a problem to a user, since the filename
is based on the key. Displaying the filename was necessary to get it and the key
included in the json.
dropunused does not include the key in the json. It would be possible to
add, but would need more changes. And I doubt that dropunused --json
would be used in a situation where a program cared which keys were
dropped. Note that drop --unused does have the key in its json, so such
a program could just use it. Or could just dropkey --batch with the
specific keys it wants to drop if it cares about specific keys.

Also in passing the --all display was fixed up to not quote keys like filenames.
Note that the check added to compareChanges was needed to avoid logging when
nothing changed.

The json does not include an url field, but it does have an input field that is
"file url" when using --batch and ["file", "url"] when using the command line.
I chose not to change that because it would complicate batchInput.
An url field could be added if it turns out to be useful.

This makes annexFileMode be just an application of setAnnexPerm',
which avoids having 2 functions that do different versions of the same
thing.
Fixes some buggy behavior for some combinations of core.sharedRepository
and umask.

This spams the user with a lot of messages, but it seems like busywork to
avoid that and only warn once, since this warning will go away when it gets
implemented.
Also fix parsing of the octal value.

That's too much quoting, the user expects the filename to be copy and
pasteable. It would be ok to slash-escape space ('\ ')
which is what gnu find does, but it doesn't seem necessary either.
${escaped_file} has always quoted spaces though, so keep on doing it
there.

When a nonexistant file is passed to a command and --json-error-messages
is enabled, output a JSON object indicating the problem.
(But git ls-files --error-unmatch still displays errors about such files in
some situations.)
I don't like the duplication of the name of the command introduced by this,
but I can't see a great way around it. One way would be to pass the Command
instead.
When json is not enabled, the stderr is unchanged. This is necessary
because some commands like find have custom output. So dislaying
"find foo not found" would be wrong. So had to complicate things with
toplevelFileProblem having different output with and without json.
When not using --json-error-messages but still using --json, it displays
the error to stderr, but does display a json object without the error. It
does have an errorid though. Unsure how useful that behavior is.

This reverts commit a325524454.
Turns out this was predicated on an incorrect belief that json output
didn't already sometimes lack the "key" field. Since json output already
can when `giveup` was used, it seems unncessary to add a whole new
option for this.
Added a --json-exceptions option, which makes some exceptions be output in json.
The distinction is that --json-error-messages is for messages relating
to a particular ActionItem, while --json-exceptions is for messages that
are not, eg ones for a file that does not exist.
It's unfortunate that we need two switches with such a fine distinction
between them, but I'm worried about maintaining backwards compatability
in the json output, to avoid breaking anything that parses it, and this was
the way to make sure I didn't.
toplevelWarning is generally used for the latter kind of message. And
the other calls to toplevelWarning could be converted to showException. The
only possible gotcha is that if toplevelWarning is ever called after
starting acting on a file, it will add to the --json-error-messages of the
json displayed for that file and converting to showException would be a
behavior change. That seems unlikely, but I didn't convery everything to
avoid needing to satisfy myself it was not a concern.
