While ErrorBusy and other exceptions were caught and the write retried for
up to 10 seconds, it was still possible for git-annex to eventually
give up and error out without writing to the database. Now it will retry
as long as necessary.
This does mean that, if one git-annex process is suspended just as sqlite
has locked the database for writing, another git-annex that tries to write
it it might get stuck retrying forever. But, that could already happen when
opening the sqlite database, which retries forever on ErrorBusy. This is an
area where git-annex is known to not behave well, there's a todo about the
general case of it.

When importing from versioned remotes, fix tracking of the content of
deleted files.
Only S3 supports versioning so far, so only it was affected.
But, the draft import/export interface for external remotes also seemed to
need a change, so that versionedExport could be set.
move: Fix openFile crash with -J
This does make them a bit slower, although usually the log file is not
very big, so even when it's being rewritten, they will not block for
long taking the lock. Still, little slowdowns may add up when moving a lot
file files.
A less expensive fix would be to use something lower level than openFile
that does not check if the file is already open for write by another
thread. But GHC does not seem to provide anything convenient; even mkFD
checks for a writing thread.
fullLines is no longer necessary since these functions no longer will
read the file while it's being written.

* trust, untrust, semitrust, dead: Fix behavior when provided with
multiple repositories to operate on.
* trust, untrust, semitrust, dead: When provided with no parameters,
do not operate on a repository that has an empty name.
The man page and usage already indicated that multiple repos could be
provided to these commands, but they actually used unwords to combine
everything into string, and found a repo matching that string. This was
especially bad when no parameters resulted in the empty string and some
repo happened to have an empty description.
This does change the behavior, and it's possible someone relied on the
current behavior to eg, trust a repo by name with the name not quoted into
a single parameter. But fixing the empty string bug and matching the
documentation are worth breaking that usage.
Note that git-annex init/reinit do still unwords multiple parameters when
provided to them. That is inconsistent behavior, but it certianly seems
possible that something does run git-annex init with an unquoted
description, and I don't think it's worth breaking that just to make it more
consistent with these other commands.

Avoids displaying warning about git-annex restage needing to be run in
situations where it does not.
Closing a handle flushes it anyway, so no need for an explict flush. The
handle does get closed twice, but that's fine, the second one does nothing.

p2p: Pass wormhole the --appid option before the receive/send command, as
it does not accept that option after the command
I'm left wondering, did I get this wrong from the beginning, or did
wormhole change its option parser? I'm reminded of the change in 0.8.2
where it silently changed what FD the pairing code was output to.
But, looking at the wormhole source, it was at least putting --appid before
send in its test suite from the introduction of the option.
So I think probably this has always been broken. On 2021-12-31 the --appid
option was enabled, and it took until now for someone to try
git-annex p2p --pair and notice that flag day broke it..

As was attempted earlier in the buggy commit 0d2e3058ee
Avoided the bug that had by making the upgrade log be updated after each
upgrade step. So, after upgrade from v8 to v9, the log is updated, and
so Upgrade.V9's timeOfUpgrade check will find that it was upgraded
recently and so won't let it skip ahead to v10.
