Which access a remote using rsync over ssh, and which git pushes to much
more efficiently than ssh urls.
There was some old partial support for rsync URIs from 2013, but it seemed
incomplete, and did not use rsync over ssh. Weird.
I'm not sure if there's any remaining benefit to using the non-rsync url
forms with gcrypt, now that this is implemented? Updated docs to encourage
using the rsync urls.

This is a security/usability tradeoff. To avoid exposing the gpg key ids
who can decrypt the repository, users can unset
gcrypt-publish-participants.
The gcrypt-publish-participants option is available in my fork of
git-remote-gcrypt.

Use rsync for gcrypt remotes that are not local to the disk.
(Note that I have punted on supporting http transport for now, it doesn't
seem likely to be very useful.)
This was mostly quite easy, it just uses the rsync special remote to handle
the transfers. The git repository url is converted to a RsyncOptions
structure, which required parsing it separately, since the rsync special
remote only supports rsync urls, which use a different format.
Note that annexed objects are now stored at the top of the gcrypt repo,
rather than inside annex/objects. This simplified the rsync suport,
since it doesn't have to arrange to create that directory. And git-annex
is not going to be run directly within gcrypt repos -- or if in some
strance scenario it was, it would make sense for it to not see the
encrypted objects.
