The OSX autobuilder is now using github CI, and can use a current
version of ghc, rather than the old one.

Rather than the error that occurred when trying to download the unchunked

git does not crash when there's a remote configured for a user who does
not exist, and this prevents git-annex from crashing too. Consider that
a user might exist on one system but not another, and the git repo be
moved between systems. So not crashing is desirable.
Note that git fetch seems to mishandle a remote path like ~foo/bar
when the user does not exist. While it does access ./~foo/bar,
and gets as far as running git-upload-pack on the path,
it then complains there is no such repo. So different parts of git seem
to be doing different things in that edge case. Anyway, git-annex does
not need to be bug-for-bug compatible with git.

test: Put gpg temp home directory in system temp directory, not filesystem
being tested.
Since I've found indications gpg can fail talking to the agent when the
socket ends up on eg, fat. And to hopefully fix this bug report I've
followed up on.
The main risk in using the system temp dir is that TMPDIR could be set to a
long directory path, which is too long to put a unix socket in. To
partially amelorate that risk, it uses either an absolute or a relative
path, whichever is shorter. (Hopefully gpg will not convert it to a longer
form of the path..)
If the user sets TMPDIR to something so long a path to it +
"S.gpg-agent" is too long, I suppose that's their issue to deal with.

This negotiation is not supported by versions of git-annex older
than 6.20180312. Well, maybe really 6.20180227 or so, but using that in
the changelog simplifies things since it was the version for the other
changes as well.
See commit c81768d425 for the back story.
As well as allowing for future protocol improvements, this will result
in negoatiating protocol version 1, which is an improvement over default
version 0.
In fact, it looks like no supported version of git-annex will use
protocol version 0, since version 1 was introduced in 6.20180227.
Still, removing the code for version 0 seems unncessary.
See commit 31e1adc005.

* Removed support for accessing git remotes that use versions of
git-annex older than 6.20180312.
* git-annex-shell: Removed several commands that were only needed to
support git-annex versions older than 6.20180312.
(lockcontent, recvkey, sendkey, transferinfo, commit)
The P2P protocol was added in that version, and used ever since, so
this code was only needed for interop with older versions.
"git-annex-shell commit" is used by newer git-annex versions, though
unnecessarily so, because the p2pstdio command makes a single commit at
shutdown. Luckily, it was run with stderr and stdout sent to /dev/null,
and non-zero exit status or other exceptions are caught and ignored. So,
that was able to be removed from git-annex-shell too.
git-annex-shell inannex, recvkey, sendkey, and dropkey are still used by
gcrypt special remotes accessed over ssh, so those had to be kept.
It would probably be possible to convert that to using the P2P protocol,
but it would be another multi-year transition.
Some git-annex-shell fields were able to be removed. I hoped to remove
all of them, and the very concept of them, but unfortunately autoinit
is used by git-annex sync, and gcrypt uses remoteuuid.
The main win here is really in Remote.Git, removing piles of hairy fallback
code.
