Better to make it not be surprising and slow, than surprising and fast.
--raw can be used when it needs to be really fast.
Implemented adding a youtube-dl supported url to an existing file.

Decided not to --ignore-config by default. It the user has something in
their youtube-dl config files that breaks git-annex they can configure
it to use that option.
Fully working, including --fast/--relaxed.
Note that, while git-annex addurl --relaxed is not going to check
youtube-dl, I kept git annex importfeed --relaxed checking it.
Thinking is that, let's not break people's importfeed cron jobs, and
importfeed does not typically have to check a large number of new items,
so it's ok if it's a little bit slower when used with youtube playlist
feeds.
importfeed's behavior is also improved (?) when a feed has links in it
to non-media files. Before, those were skipped. Now, the content of the
link is downloaded. This had to be done, because trying to use
youtube-dl is slow, and if those were skipped, it would have to check
every time importfeed was run. While this behavior change may not be
desirable for some feeds, that intersperse links to web pages with
enclosures, it will be desirable for other feeds, that have
non-enclosure directy links to media files.
Remove old quvi modules.

Including resuming and cleanup of incomplete downloads.
Still todo: --fast, --relaxed, importfeed, disk reserve checking,
quvi code cleanup.

Needed to run youtube-dl in, but could also be useful for other stuff.
The tricky part of this was making the workdir be cleaned up whenever the
tmp object file is cleaned up.

Clean up some uses of showStart with "" for the file,
or in some cases, a non-filename description string. That would
generate bad json, although none of the commands doing that
supported --json.
Using "" for the file resulted in output like "foo rest";
now the extra space is eliminated.

This will be used in youtube-dl integration, to tell when a html page has
been downloaded by addurl, in which case it is worth running youtube-dl
to see if it can extract media from it.
tagsoup is an almost free dependency, because yesod depends on it.
So, this only really adds a dep when git-annex is built without the
webapp.
I'd like this to as closely as possible match how browsers decide if a
page is html or not. Unfortunately, that is fairly heuristic, in order
to support malformed html. And, we don't want to falsely detect
something as html just because it has something that looks like a html
tag embedded somewhere in it. Probably any major video hosting site is
going to be serving html documents that at least start with a <html>
tag, so requiring that or a DOCTYPE should be good enough.

As it was getting too expensive to patch out use of the "new" syscalls
We could revisit this if someone has hardware with an older kernel
that's still being maintained, but I've verified that the Synology
NAS that had used a too old kernel version has been updated to 2.6.32.
Needs ghc 7.6.1, so minimum base version increased slightly. All builds
are well above this version of ghc, and debian oldstable is as well.
Code that could use lambdacase can be found by running:
git grep -B 1 'case ' | less
and searching in less for "<-"

They need unix on non-windows, for Utility.Env, which Build.Configure uses,
but cabal can't express that in a custom-setup stanza.
To avoid this problem, Utility.Env would need to be moved into
unix-compat..
