This does not change the overall license of the git-annex program, which
was already AGPL due to a number of sources files being AGPL already.
Legally speaking, I'm adding a new license under which these files are
now available; I already released their current contents under the GPL
license. Now they're dual licensed GPL and AGPL. However, I intend
for all my future changes to these files to only be released under the
AGPL license, and I won't be tracking the dual licensing status, so I'm
simply changing the license statement to say it's AGPL.
(In some cases, others wrote parts of the code of a file and released it
under the GPL; but in all cases I have contributed a significant portion
of the code in each file and it's that code that is getting the AGPL
license; the GPL license of other contributors allows combining with
AGPL code.)
* drop -J: Avoid processing the same key twice at the same time when
multiple annexes files use it.
This prevents a drop of a key conflicting with another drop of the same
key.

This is groundwork for nested seek loops, eg seeking over all files and
then performing commandActions on a list of remotes, which can be done
concurrently.

Added -z option to git-annex commands that use --batch, useful for
supporting filenames containing newlines.
It only controls input to --batch, the output will still be line delimited
unless --json or etc is used to get some other output. While git often
makes -z affect both input and output, I don't like trying them together,
and making it affect output would have been a significant complication,
and also git-annex output is generally not intended to be machine parsed,
unless using --json or a format option.
Commands that take pairs like "file key" still separate them with a space
in --batch mode. All such commands take care to support filenames with
spaces when parsing that, so there was no need to change it, and it would
have needed significant changes to the batch machinery to separate tose
with a null.
To make fromkey and registerurl support -z, I had to give them a --batch
option. The implicit batch mode they enter when not provided with input
parameters does not support -z as that would have complicated option
parsing. Seemed better to move these toward using the same --batch as
everything else, though the implicit batch mode can still be used.

When --batch is used with matching options like --in, --metadata, etc, only
operate on the provided files when they match those options. Otherwise, a
blank line is output in the batch protocol.
Affected commands: find, add, whereis, drop, copy, move, get
In the case of find, the documentation for --batch already said it honored
the matching options. The docs for the rest didn't, but it makes sense to
have them honor them. While this is a behavior change, why specify the
matching options with --batch if you didn't want them to apply?
Note that the batch output for all of the affected commands could
already output a blank line in other cases, so batch users should
already be prepared to deal with it.
git-annex metadata didn't seem worth making support the matching options,
since all it does is output metadata or set metadata, the use cases for
using it in combination with the martching options seem small. Made it
refuse to run when they're combined, leaving open the possibility for later
support if a use case develops.

move: Added --safe option, which makes move honor numcopies settings.
Also --unsafe enables the default behavior, anticipating that the
default may one day change.

Added --json-error-messages option, which includes error messages in the
json output, rather than outputting them to stderr.
The actual rediretion of errors is not implemented yet, this is only
the docs and option plumbing.

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.

git annex add, git annex lock etc make multiple seek passes,
and each seek pass checked that files existed. That was unncessary
redundant work.
Fixed by adding a new WorkTreeItem type, make seek actions use it,
and check that the files exist when constructing it.

Reworked remote name parsing to allow things like that. Command.Move
uses it for --to=here, although there's not yet an implementation of
that option.

Note that get --from foo --failed will get things that a previous get --from bar
tried and failed to get, etc. I considered making --failed only retry
transfers from the same remote, but it was easier, and seems more useful,
to not have the same remote requirement.
Noisy due to some refactoring into Types/
Show branch:file that is being operated on.
I had to make ActionItem a type and not a type class because
withKeyOptions' passed two different types of values when using the type
class, and I could not get the type checker to accept that.
There should be no behavior changes in this commit, it just adds a more
expressive data type and adjusts code that had been passing around a [UUID]
or sometimes a Maybe Remote to instead use [VerifiedCopy].
Although, since some functions were taking two different [UUID] lists,
there's some potential for me to have gotten it horribly wrong.
Also, rename lockContent to lockContentExclusive
inAnnexSafe should perhaps be eliminated, and instead use
`lockContentShared inAnnex`. However, I'm waiting on that, as there are
only 2 call sites for inAnnexSafe and it's fiddly.
This is a work in progress. It compiles and is able to do basic command
dispatch, including git autocorrection, while using optparse-applicative
for the core commandline parsing.
* Many commands are temporarily disabled before conversion.
* Options are not wired in yet.
* cmdnorepo actions don't work yet.
Also, removed the [Command] list, which was only used in one place.
This potentially fixes a numcopies counting bug when dropping --from a
remote, and the local repository is trusted. The local repo would end up in
the list twice, so it would verify one less copy than it was supposed to.
This fixed one bug where it needed to be and wasn't (in Assistant.Unused).
And also found one place where lockContent was used unnecessarily (by
drop --from remote).
A few other places like uninit probably don't really need to lockContent,
but it doesn't hurt to do call it anyway.

Only fsck and reinject and the test suite used the Backend, and they can
look it up as needed from the Key. This simplifies the code and also speeds
it up.
There is a small behavior change here. Before, all commands would warn when
acting on an annexed file with an unknown backend. Now, only fsck and
reinject show that warning.
This includes checking when dropping files that any required content
configuration is satisfied. However, it does not yet include an active
check on the required content; the location log is trusted when checking
the required content expression.
