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.

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.

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.

I'm on the fence about this. Notice that pulling from a git remote can
pull branches that have escape sequences in their names. Git will
display those as-is. Arguably git should try harder to avoid that.
But, names of remotes are usually up to the local user, and autoenable
changes that, and so it makes sense that git chooses to display control
characters in names of remotes, and so autoenable needs to guard against
it.

This does, as a side effect, make long notes in json output not
be indented. The indentation is only needed to offset them
underneath the display of the file they apply to, so that's ok.

Converted warning and similar to use StringContainingQuotedPath. Most
warnings are static strings, some do refer to filepaths that need to be
quoted, and others don't need quoting.
Note that, since quote filters out control characters of even
UnquotedString, this makes all warnings safe, even when an attacker
sneaks in a control character in some other way.
When json is being output, no quoting is done, since json gets its own
quoting.
This does, as a side effect, make warning messages in json output not
be indented. The indentation is only needed to offset warning messages
underneath the display of the file they apply to, so that's ok.

giveup changed to filter out control characters. (It is too low level to
make it use StringContainingQuotedPath.)
error still does not, but it should only be used for internal errors,
where the message is not attacker-controlled.
Changed a lot of existing error to giveup when it is not strictly an
internal error.
Of course, other exceptions can still be thrown, either by code in
git-annex, or a library, that include some attacker-controlled value.
This does not guard against those.

This serves two purposes. --remote=web bypasses other special remotes that
claim the url, same as addurl --raw. And, specifying some other remote
allows making sure that an url is claimed by the remote you expect,
which makes then using setpresentkey not be fragile.

view: Support annex.maxextensionlength when generating filenames for the
view branch.
Note that refining an existing view will reuse the extension length that was
configured when initially constructing the view. This is necessarily the case
because it reuses the filenames.
Also view files used to have all extensions at the end, no matter how
many there were. Since annex.maxextensionlength's documentation includes
that it's limited to 2 extensions, I made it consistent with that.

Well, perhaps it could be documented better, but it's a compositional
feature so users who need it will probably try it and be happy to find
that it works.

A benchmark in my sound repository with `git-annex view feedtitle=*`
took 2:52 wall clock time before and 1:58 after. Though it still only used
130% of CPU.
This is the same kind of optimisation that is in seekFilteredKeys, though
that precaches location logs while this streams the metadata logs direct
to parsing them.
seekFilteredKeys contains more streaming, to find the annexed files, and
this could be further sped up with similar streaming.

* view: New field?=glob and ?tag syntax that includes a directory "_"
in the view for files that do not have the specified metadata set.
* Added annex.viewunsetdirectory git config to change the name of the
"_" directory in a view.
When in a view using the new syntax, old git-annex will fail to parse the
view log. It errors with "Not in a view.", which is not ideal. But that
only affects view commands.
annex.viewunsetdirectory is included in the View for a couple of reasons.
One is to avoid needing to warn the user that it should not be changed when
in a view, since that would confuse git-annex. Another reason is that it
helped with plumbing the value through to some pure functions.
annex.viewunsetdirectory is actually mangled the same as any other view
directory. So if it's configured to something like "N/A", there won't be
multiple levels of directories, which would also confuse git-annex.

I've long been asked for `git-annex find --all` or something like that,
but pushed back on it because I feel that the command is analagous to
find(1) and so it would be surprising for it to list keys rather than
files. So instead, add a new findkeys subcommand.
Note that the use of withKeyOptions is rather strange because usually
that is used to fall back to --all rather than listing files, but here
it's made to default to --all like behavior and never list files.
A performance thing that could be improved is that withKeyOptions
always reads and caches location logs. But findkeys with no options does
not need them, so it could be made faster. That caching does speed up
options like --in though. This is really just a subset of a more general
performance thing that --all reads location logs sometimes unncessarily.
Anyway, it needs to read the location log in order to checkDead,
and it seems good that findkeys does skip dead keys.
Also, cleaned up comments on git-annex-find man page asking for --all
option.

Note that when this is specified and an older git-annex is used to
enableremote such a special remote, it will simply ignore the cost= field
and use whatever the default cost is.
In passing, fixed adb to support the remote.name.cost and
remote.name.cost-command configs.

When a web special remote does not have urlinclude/urlexclude
configured, make it respect the configuration of other web special
remotes and avoid using urls that match the config of another.
Note that the other web special remote does not have to be enabled.
That seems ok, it would have been extra work to check for only ones that
are enabled.
The implementation does mean that the web special remote re-parses
its own config once at startup, as well as re-parsing the configs of any
other web special remotes. This should be a very small slowdown
unless there are lots of web special remotes.

readish ignores a trailing string after a number, but to support values
like "YYYY:MM:DD" which it makes sense to compare lexographically,
require the whole string to be parsed as a number in order to enable

Added --anything (and --nothing). Eg, git-annex find --anything will list
all annexed files whether or not the content is present. This is slightly
faster and clearer than --include=* or --exclude=*
While I can't imagine how --nothing will be used, preferred content
expressions already had anything and nothing, so might as well support both
