Debian is going to drop youtube-dl which is not active upstream, and yt-dlp
is the replacement. This will make it be used if youtube-dl gets removed.
If an old version of youtube-dl remains installed, git-annex will still use
it. That might not be desirable, but changing git-annex to use yt-dlp in
preference to youtube-dl when both are installed risks breaking when
the user has annex.youtube-dl-options set to something that is supported
by youtube-dl, but not by yt-dlp.

init: Avoid scanning for annexed files, which can be lengthy in a
large repository. Instead that scan is done on demand. This lets git-annex
init be run and some query commands be used in a repository without
waiting.
Note that autoinit already behaved this way, so while this will mean some
commands like git-annex get/unlock/add will do the scan the first time run,
that is not really a significant behavior change.
And, it's really better to have a consistent behavior. The reason for
the inconsistency was a strange bug discussed in
b3c4579c79. Avoiding reconcileStaged in
init will keep avoiding whatever that was.

Increasing the size of the queue 10x makes git-annex init 7% faster in a
repository with 86000 annexed files.
The memory use goes up, from 70876 kb to 85376 kb.
Avoids database querying overhead when the database is newly created.
In the large repository where git-annex init took 24 seconds, this sped it
up to 20.47 seconds, a speedup of around 15%.

export: Fix a bug that left a file on a special remote when two files with
the same content were both deleted in the exported tree.
Case of the wrong data structure leading to the wrong result.
The DiffMap now contains all the old filenames, and all the new filenames.
Note that, when 2 files with the same content are both renamed,
it only renames the first, but deletes and re-exports the second.
Improving that is possible, but it would need to use a different temporary
filename. Anyway, that is an unusual case, and there are known to be other
unusual cases where export does not rename with maximum efficiency, IIRC.
(Or maybe this is the case that I remember?)

The initTests have to be run once per part, and a point of diminishing
returns can be reached where more work is being done to set up for 1 or
2 tests than to run them.
This is better than a hard cap of -J8 or so, because it lets other
things than these particular tests still be parallelized at -J16.

Clean the standalone environment before running the su command
to run "sh". Otherwise, PATH leaked through, causing it to run
git-annex.linux/bin/sh, but GIT_ANNEX_DIR was not set,
which caused that script to not work:
[2022-10-26 15:07:02.145466106] (Utility.Process) process [938146] call: pkexec ["sh","-c","cd '/home/joey/tmp/git-annex.linux/r' && '/home/joey/tmp/git-annex.linux/git-annex' 'enable-tor' '1000'"]
/home/joey/tmp/git-annex.linux/bin/sh: 4: exec: /exe/sh: not found
Changed programPath to not use GIT_ANNEX_PROGRAMPATH,
but instead run the scripts at the top of GIT_ANNEX_DIR.
That works both when the standalone environment is set up, and when it's
not.

Make --batch mode handle unstaged annexed files consistently whether the
file is unlocked or not. Before this, a unstaged locked file
would have the symlink on disk examined and operated on in --batch mode,
while an unstaged unlocked file would be skipped.
Note that, when not in batch mode, unstaged files are skipped over too.
That is actually somewhat new behavior; as late as 7.20191114 a
command like `git-annex whereis .` would operate on unstaged locked
files and skip over unstaged unlocked files. That changed during
optimisation of CmdLine.Seek with apparently little fanfare or notice.
Turns out that rmurl still behaved that way when given an unstaged file
on the command line. It was changed to use lookupKeyStaged to
handle its --batch mode. That also affected its non-batch mode, but
since that's just catching up to the change earlier made to most
other commands, I have not mentioed that in the changelog.
It may be that other uses of lookupKey should also change to
lookupKeyStaged. But it may also be that would slow down some things,
or lead to unwanted behavior changes, so I've kept the changes minimal
for now.
An example of a place where the use of lookupKey is better than
lookupKeyStaged is in Command.AddUrl, where it looks to see if the file
already exists, and adds the url to the file when so. It does not matter
there whether the file is staged or not (when it's locked). The use of
lookupKey in Command.Unused likewise seems good (and faster).
