support findred and --branch with file matching options
* findref: Support file matching options: --include, --exclude,
  --want-get, --want-drop, --largerthan, --smallerthan, --accessedwithin
* Commands supporting --branch now apply file matching options --include,
  --exclude, --want-get, --want-drop to filenames from the branch.
  Previously, combining --branch with those would fail to match anything.
* add, import, findref: Support --time-limit.

annex.cachecreds: New config to allow disabling of credentials caching for special remotes.
Note that it does not prevent storing p2p access tokens or multicast
encryption keys, since those are not cached; the previous commit
established the distinction.

How well this works depends on how often getRemoteCredPair is called and
how expensive it is. In some cases setting this will result in an annoying
number of gpg password prompts and/or slowdowns due to reading creds
from the git-annex branch and decrypting, which could be improved by calling
getRemoteCredPair less often.

v7
Install new git hooks in this version.

This does beg the question of what to do if git later gets eg a
post-smudge hook, that could run git-annex smudge --update. I think the
thing to do in that case would be to make git-annex smudge --update
install the new hooks. That way, as the user uses git-annex, the hook
would be created pretty quickly and without needing any extra syscalls
except for when git-annex smudge --update is called.

I considered doing something like that for installation of the
post-checkout and post-merge hooks, which would have avoided the need
for v7. But the only place it was cheap to do it would be in git-annex smudge
which could cheaply notice that smudge.log didn't exist yet and so know
the hooks needed to be installed. But since smudge used to populate pointer
files, it would be quite surprising if a single git checkout/merge failed
to update the work tree, and so that idea didn't work out.

The other reason for v7 is psychological -- users don't need to worry
about whether they might be running an old version of git-annex that
doesn't support their v7 repository very well. And bug reports about
"v6" have gotten a bit of a bad association in my head since they often
hit one of the known limitations and didn't realize it was experimental.

newtyped RepoVersion Int to avoid needing 2 comparisons in
versionSupportsUnlockedPointers etc. Also it's just nicer.

refactor getCurrentBranch
Both Command.Sync and Annex.Ingest had their own versions of this.

The one in Annex.Ingest used Git.Branch.currentUnsafe, but does not seem
to need it. That is only checking to see if it's in an adjusted unlocked
branch, and when in an adjusted branch, the branch does in fact exist,
so the added check that Git.Branch.current does is fine.

removed the old Android app
Running git-annex linux builds in termux seems to work well enough that the
only reason to keep the Android app would be to support Android 4-5, which
the old Android app supported, and which I don't know if the termux method
works on (although I see no reason why it would not).
According to [1], Android 4-5 remains on around 29% of devices, down from
51% one year ago.

[1] https://www.statista.com/statistics/271774/share-of-android-platforms-on-mobile-devices-with-android-os/

This is a rather large commit, but mostly very straightfoward removal of
android ifdefs and patches and associated cruft.

Also, removed support for building with very old ghc < 8.0.1, and with
yesod < 1.4.3, and without concurrent-output, which were only being used
by the cross build.

Some documentation specific to the Android app (screenshots etc) needs
to be updated still.

use per-remote metadata storage for S3 version ID

cache remotes via annex-speculate-present
Added remote.name.annex-speculate-present config that can be used to
make cache remotes.

Implemented it in Remote.keyPossibilities, which is used by the
get/move/copy/mirror commands, and nothing else. This way, things like
whereis will not show content that's speculatively present.

The assistant and sync --content were not using Remote.keyPossibilities,
and were changed to use it.

The efficiency hit should be small; Remote.keyPossibilities is only
used before transferring a file, which is the expensive operation.
And, it's only doing one lookup of the remoteList and a very cheap
filter over it.

Note that, git-annex still updates the location log when copying content
to a remote with annex-speculate-present set. In this case, the location
tracking will indicate that content is present in the remote. This may
not be wanted for caches, or may not be a real problem for them. TBD.

enforce retrievalSecurityPolicy
Leveraged the existing verification code by making it also check the
retrievalSecurityPolicy.

Also, prevented getViaTmp from running the download action at all when the
retrievalSecurityPolicy is going to prevent verifying and so storing it.

Added annex.security.allow-unverified-downloads. A per-remote version
would be nice to have too, but would need more plumbing, so KISS.
(Bill the Cat reference not too over the top I hope. The point is to
make this something the user reads the documentation for before using.)

A few calls to verifyKeyContent and getViaTmp, that don't
involve downloads from remotes, have RetrievalAllKeysSecure hard-coded.
It was also hard-coded for P2P.Annex and Command.RecvKey,
to match the values of the corresponding remotes.

A few things use retrieveKeyFile/retrieveKeyFileCheap without going
through getViaTmp.
* Command.Fsck when downloading content from a remote to verify it.
  That content does not get into the annex, so this is ok.
* Command.AddUrl when using a remote to download an url; this is new
  content being added, so this is ok.

add retrievalSecurityPolicy
This will be used to protect against CVE-2018-10859, where an encrypted
special remote is fed the wrong encrypted data, and so tricked into
decrypting something that the user encrypted with their gpg key and did
not store in git-annex.

It also protects against CVE-2018-10857, where a remote follows a http
redirect to a file:// url or to a local private web server. While that's
already been prevented in git-annex's own use of http, external special
remotes, hooks, etc use other http implementations and could still be
vulnerable.

The policy is not yet enforced, this commit only adds the appropriate
metadata to remotes.

allow ftp urls by default
They're no worse than http certianly. And, the backport of these
security fixes has to deal with wget, which supports http https and ftp

prevent http connections to localhost and private ips by default
Security fix!

* git-annex will refuse to download content from http servers on
  localhost, or any private IP addresses, to prevent accidental
  exposure of internal data. This can be overridden with the
  annex.security.allowed-http-addresses setting.
* Since curl's interface does not have a way to prevent it from accessing
  localhost or private IP addresses, curl defaults to not being used
  for url downloads, even if annex.web-options enabled it before.
  Only when annex.security.allowed-http-addresses=all will curl be used.

Since S3 and WebDav use the Manager, the same policies apply to them too.

youtube-dl is not handled yet, and a http proxy configuration can bypass
these checks too. Those cases are still TBD.

limit url downloads to whitelisted schemes
Security fix! Allowing any schemes, particularly file: and
possibly others like scp: allowed file exfiltration by anyone who had
write access to the git repository, since they could add an annexed file
using such an url, or using an url that redirected to such an url,
and wait for the victim to get it into their repository and send them a copy.

* Added annex.security.allowed-url-schemes setting, which defaults
  to only allowing http and https URLs. Note especially that file:/
  is no longer enabled by default.

* Removed annex.web-download-command, since its interface does not allow
  supporting annex.security.allowed-url-schemes across redirects.
  If you used this setting, you may want to instead use annex.web-options
  to pass options to curl.

With annex.web-download-command removed, nearly all url accesses in
git-annex are made via Utility.Url via http-client or curl. http-client
only supports http and https, so no problem there.
(Disabling one and not the other is not implemented.)

Used curl --proto to limit the allowed url schemes.

Note that this will cause git annex fsck --from web to mark files using
a disallowed url scheme as not being present in the web. That seems
acceptable; fsck --from web also does that when a web server is not available.

youtube-dl already disabled file: itself (probably for similar
reasons). The scheme check was also added to youtube-dl urls for
completeness, although that check won't catch any redirects it might
follow. But youtube-dl goes off and does its own thing with other
protocols anyway, so that's fine.

Special remotes that support other domain-specific url schemes are not
affected by this change. In the bittorrent remote, aria2c can still
download magnet: links. The download of the .torrent file is
otherwise now limited by annex.security.allowed-url-schemes.

This does not address any external special remotes that might download
an url themselves. Current thinking is all external special remotes will
need to be audited for this problem, although many of them will use
http libraries that only support http and not curl's menagarie.

The related problem of accessing private localhost and LAN urls is not
addressed by this commit.

removal of the rest of remoteGitConfig
In keyUrls, the GitConfig is used only by annexLocations
to support configured Differences. Since such configurations affect all
clones of a repository, the local repo's GitConfig must have the same
information as the remote's GitConfig would have. So, used getGitConfig
to get the local GitConfig, which is cached and so available cheaply.

That actually fixed a bug noone had ever noticed: keyUrls is
used for remotes accessed over http. The full git config of such a
remote is normally not available, so the remoteGitConfig that keyUrls
used would not have the necessary information in it.

In copyFromRemoteCheap', it uses gitAnnexLocation,
which does need the GitConfig of the remote repo itself in order to
check if it's crippled, supports symlinks, etc. So, made the
State include that GitConfig, cached. The use of gitAnnexLocation is
within a (not $ Git.repoIsUrl repo) guard, so it's local, and so
its git config will always be read and available.

(Note that gitAnnexLocation in turn calls annexLocations, so the
Differences config it uses in this case comes from the remote repo's
GitConfig and not from the local repo's GitConfig. As explained above
this is ok since they must have the same value.)

Not very happy with this mess of different GitConfigs not type-safe and
some read only sometimes etc. Very hairy. Think I got it this change
right. Test suite passes..

change Remote.repo to Remote.getRepo
This is groundwork for letting a repo be instantiated the first time
it's actually used, instead of at startup.

The only behavior change is that some old special cases for xmpp remotes
were removed. Where before git-annex silently did nothing with those
no-longer supported remotes, it may now fail in some way.

The additional IO action should have no performance impact as long as
it's simply return.

Fix build with ghc 8.4+, which broke due to the Semigroup Monoid change
https://prime.haskell.org/wiki/Libraries/Proposals/SemigroupMonoid

I am not happy with the fragile pile of CPP boilerplate required to support
ghc back to 7.0, which git-annex still targets for both the android build
and the standalone build targeting old linux kernels. It makes me unlikely
to want to use Semigroup more in git-annex, because the benefit of the
abstraction is swamped by the ugliness. I actually considered ripping out
all the Semigroup instances, but some are needed to use
optparse-applicative.

The problem, I think, is they made this transaction on too fast a timeline.
(Although ironically, work on it started in 2015 or earlier!)
In particular, Debian oldstable is not out of security support, and it's
not possible to follow the simpler workarounds documented on the wiki and
have it build on oldstable (because the semigroups package in it is too
old).

I have only tested this build with ghc 8.2.2, not the newer and older
versions that branches of the CPP support. So there could be typoes, we'll
see.

Switch to Data.Map.Strict everywhere that used it.

There are still lots of lazy maps in git-annex. I think switching these
is safe. The risk is that there might be a map that is used in a way
that relies on the values not being evaluated to WHNF, and switching to
strict might result in bad performance or memory use. So, I have not
switched everything.

Fix mangling of --json output of utf-8 characters when not running in a utf-8 locale
As long as all code imports Utility.Aeson rather than Data.Aeson,
and no Strings that may contain utf-8 characters are used for eg, object
keys via T.pack, this is guaranteed to fix the problem everywhere that
git-annex generates json.

It's kind of annoying to need to wrap ToJSON with a ToJSON', especially
since every data type that has a ToJSON instance has to be ported over.
However, that only took 50 lines of code, which is worth it to ensure full
coverage. I initially tried an alternative approach of a newtype FileEncoded,
which had to be used everywhere a String was fed into aeson, and chasing
down all the sites would have been far too hard. Did consider creating an
intentionally overlapping instance ToJSON String, and letting ghc fail
to build anything that passed in a String, but am not sure that wouldn't
pollute some library that git-annex depends on that happens to use ToJSON
String internally.

don't copy old date metadata when adding new version of a file
When adding a new version of a file, and annex.genmetadata is enabled,
don't copy the data metadata from the old version of the file, instead use
the mtime of the file. Rationalle being that the user has requested to

Also, avoid warning about copying metadata when all the old metadata is

force verification when resuming download
When resuming a download and not using a rolling checksummer like rsync,
the partial file we start with might contain garbage, in the case where a
file changed as it was being downloaded. So, disabling verification on
resumes risked a bad object being put into the annex.

Even downloads with rsync are currently affected. It didn't seem worth the
added complexity to special case those to prevent verification, especially
since git-annex is using rsync less often now.

deal with unlocked files
P2P protocol version 1 adds VALID|INVALID after DATA; INVALID means the
file was detected to change content while it was being sent and so we
may not have received the valid content of the file.

Added new MustVerify constructor for Verification, which forces
verification even when annex.verify=false etc. This is used when INVALID
and in protocol version 0.

As well as changing git-annex-shell p2psdio, this makes git-annex tor
remotes always force verification, since they don't yet use protocol
version 1. Previously, annex.verify=false could skip verification when
using tor remotes, and let bad data into the repository.

add remote.<name>.annex-checkuuid
Added remote.<name>.annex-checkuuid config, which can be set to false to
disable the default checking of the uuid of remotes that point to
directories. This can be useful to avoid unncessary drive spin-ups and
automounting.

Note that the UUID check is still done before writing to the repository,
to avoid writing to the wrong repository if it got relocated. Check is
also done before checkPresent to avoid getting confused about what is in
which repo. This is effectively the same as the use of git-annex-shell
with a uuid to check that the remote repository is the expected one.
Did not bother with the check for retrieveKeyFile because it doesn't
matter if the wrong repo is used then.

better dup key with -J fix
This avoids all the complication about redundant work discussed in
the previous try at fixing this. At the expense of needing each command
that could have the problem to be patched to simply wrap the action in
onlyActionOn once the key is known. But there do not seem to be many
such commands.

onlyActionOn' should not be used with a CommandStart (or CommandPerform),
although the types do allow it. onlyActionOn handles running the whole
CommandStart chain. I couldn't immediately see a way to avoid mistken
use of onlyActionOn'.

Improve behavior when -J transfers multiple files that point to the same key
After a false start, I found a fairly non-intrusive way to deal with it.
Although it only handles transfers -- there may be issues with eg
concurrent dropping of the same key, or other operations.

There is no added overhead when -J is not used, other than an added
inAnnex check. When -J is used, it has to maintain and check a small
Set, which should be negligible overhead.

It could output some message saying that the transfer is being done by
another thread. Or it could even display the same progress info for both
files that are being downloaded since they have the same content. But I
opted to keep it simple, since this is rather an edge case, so it just
doesn't say anything about the transfer of the file until the other
thread finishes.

Since the deferred transfer action still runs, actions that do more than
transfer content will still get a chance to do their other work. (An
example of something that needs to do such other work is P2P.Annex,
where the download always needs to receive the content from the peer.)
And, if the first thread fails to complete a transfer, the second thread
can resume it.

But, this unfortunately means that there's a risk of redundant work
being done to transfer a key that just got transferred.
That's not ideal, but should never cause breakage; the same
thing can occur when running two separate git-annex processes.

The get/move/copy/mirror --from commands had extra inAnnex checks added,
inside the download actions. Without those checks, the first thread
downloaded the content, and then the second thread woke up and
downloaded the same content redundantly.

move/copy/mirror --to is left doing redundant uploads for now. It
would need a second checkPresent of the remote inside the upload
to avoid them, which would be expensive. A better way to avoid
redundant work needs to be found..

metadata: Added --remove-all.
Motivation is to remove all metadata when it gets copied from a previous
version of the file, and that is not deisrable.
