The gnuplot output is pretty good, but could still be improved with:
* more colors (repeating colors is confusing with a lot of repos)
* better positioning of the legend, making the plot wider and moving it
from over top of the graph

Only counting received and not dropped makes this show the bandwidth of
data coming into the repository, although only in a sense. Since
git-annex branch updates only happen at the end of a command, and we
don't know when a command started, it's only an approximation of the
actual bandwidth. (A previous git-annex branch update made have
happened in a different repository.)
It would be possible to also add a --dropped option, but I don't know
how useful that would be?

CSV format so it can be fed into a program to graph it.
Note that dead repositories are not yet handled so their sizes show as
nonzero after they are marked dead.

This can take a lot of memory. I decided to violate the usual rule in
git-annex that it operate in constant memory no matter how many annexed
objects. In this case, it would be hard to be fast without using a big
map of the location logs. The main difficulty here is that there can be
many git-annex branches and it needs to display a consistent view at a
point in time, which means merging information from multiple git-annex
branches.
I have not checked if there are any laziness leaks in this code. It
takes 1 gb to run in my big repo, which is around what I estimated
before writing it.
2 options that are documented are not yet implemented.
Small bug: With eg --when=1h, it will display at 12:00 then 1:10 if the
next change after 12:59 is then. Then it waits until after 2:10 to
display the next change. It ought to wait until after 2:00.

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.

New --batch-keys option added to these commands: get, drop, move, copy, whereis
git-annex-matching-options had to be reworded since some of its options
can be used to match on keys, not only files.

Sometimes users would get confused because an option they were looking
for was not mentioned on a subcommand's man page, and they had not
noticed that the main git-annex man page had a list of common options.
This change lets each subcommand mention the common options, similarly
to how the matching options are handled.
