The ContentIdentifier can contain almost anything, so could have characters
that are not fit for the filesystem, or might be longer than a key usually
is, or contain a newline, or .... genKeyName deals with those problems.
This should not present a back-compat issue, because this is a temporary
key used while downloading the imported file, before the real key for it
can be generated.
Since an external process can be in the middle of some operation when an
async exception is received, it has to be shut down then. Using
cleanupProcess will close its IO handles and send it a SIGTERM.
If a special remote choses to catch SIGTERM, it's fine for it to do some
cleanup then, but until it finishes, git-annex will be blocked waiting
for it. If a special remote blocked SIGTERM, it would cause a hang.
Mentioned in docs.
Also, in passing, fixed a FD leak, it was not closing the error handle
when shutting down the external. In practice that didn't matter before because
it was only run when git-annex was itself shutting down, but now that it
can run on exception, it would have been a problem.
Audited for openFile and openFd, and this fixes all the ones I found
where an async exception could prevent the file getting closed.
Except for the lock pool, which is a whole other can of worms.
Masking ensures that EndStderrHandler gets written, so the helper
threads shut down.
However, nothing currently guarantees that calls to closeP2PSshConnection
are async exception safe, so made a note about it.
At this point, I've audited all calls to async, and made them all async
exception safe, except for ones in the assistant, and a few in leaf
commands (remotedaemon, enable-tor, multicast, p2p) which don't need to
be.
