avoid interrupted push leaving remote without a manifest
Added a backup manifest key, which is used if the main manifest key is
not present. When uploading a new Manifest, it makes sure that it never
drops one key except when the other key is present.

It's entirely possible for the two manifest keys to get out of sync, due
to races. The main one wins when it's present, it is possible for the
main one being dropped to expose the backup one, which has a different
push recorded.

avoid using dropEnd
That needs bytestring-0.11.1.0 and several builds don't have that.

git-annex unused --from remote skips its git-remote-annex keys
This turns out to only be necessary is edge cases. Most of the
time, git-annex unused --from remote doesn't see git-remote-annex keys
at all, because it does not record a location log for them.

On the other hand, git-annex unused does find them, since it does not
rely on the location log. And that's good because they're a local cache
that the user should be able to drop.

If, however, the user ran git-annex unused and then git-annex move
--unused --to remote, the keys would have a location log for that
remote. Then git-annex unused --from remote would see them, and would
consider them unused. Even when they are present on the special remote
they belong to. And that risks losing data if they drop the keys from
the special remote, but didn't expect it would delete git branches they
had pushed to it.

So, make git-annex unused --from skip git-remote-annex keys whose uuid
is the same as the remote.

add Backend.GitRemoteAnnex
Making GITBUNDLE be in the backend list allows those keys to be
hashed to verify, both when git-remote-annex downloads them, and by other
transfers and by git fsck.

GITMANIFEST is not in the backend list, because those keys will never be
stored in .git/annex/objects and can't be verified in any case.

This does mean that git-annex version will include GITBUNDLE in the list
of backends.

Also documented these in backends.mdwn
