I saw a nearly 2 minute speed up from this, in a repo with 56000 files some
of which are preferred content of the special remote and others not. In
such a case, addBackExportExcluded has to do a lot of work, which is
unncessary when the tree is unchanged.
When using sync --content, preferred content checking of that many files
takes about 1 minute. So this speeds up sync --content by 3x.
When using git-annex import, the speed up is much larger.

Thanks to previous work in 11cc9f1933,
this is almost entirely free, it only needs to do some additional map
lookups and math.
The strictness annotations keep the memory use from blowing up.

Fix a crash opening sqlite databases when run in a non-unicode locale,
with a remote that uses a non-unicode filepath. In that situation
converting to Text fails.
The fix needs git-annex to be built with persistent-sqlite 2.13.3.
Building against older versions still works, but that version is used when
building with stack.
Database.RawFilePath is a lot of code copied from persistent-sqlite and
lightly modified, since only 1 function in persistent-sqlite was made to
support RawFilePath. This is a bit of a pain, and I hope that
persistent-sqlite will eventually switch to using OsPath, allowing this
module to be removed from git-annex.

When importing from a special remote, support preferred content expressions
that use terms that match on keys (eg "present", "copies=1"). Such terms
are ignored when importing, since the key is not known yet.
When "standard" or "groupwanted" is used, the terms in those
expressions also get pruned accordingly.
This does allow setting preferred content to "not (copies=1)" to make a
special remote into a "source" type of repository. Importing from it will
import all files. Then exporting to it will drop all files from it.
In the case of setting preferred content to "present", it's pruned on
import, so everything gets imported from it. Then on export, it's applied,
and everything in it is left on it, and no new content is exported to it.
Since the old behavior on these preferred content expressions was for
importtree to error out, there's no backwards compatability to worry about.
Except that sync/pull/etc will now import where before it errored out.
