Now that truncateFilePath and relatedTemplate have both been optimised,
may as well use them in replaceFile, rather than the custom hack it
used.
Removed the windows-specific ifdef as well, because on Windows long
filepaths no longer really a problem, since ghc and git-annex use UNC
converted paths.
replaceFile no longer checks fileNameLengthLimit. That took a syscall,
and since we have an existing file, we know filenames of its length are
supported by the filesystem. Assuming that the withOtherTmp directory is
on the same filesystem as the file replaceFile is being called on, which
I believe it is.

Often the filepath will be all ascii, or mostly so, and this
optimisation makes a file that has an ascii suffix of sufficient length
be roundtrip converted between String and ByteString only once, rather
than once per character.

And follow-on changes.
Note that relatedTemplate was changed to operate on a RawFilePath, and
so when it counts the length, it is now the number of bytes, not the
number of code points. This will just make it truncate shorter strings
in some cases, the truncation is still unicode aware.
When not building with the OsPath flag, toOsPath . fromRawFilePath and
fromRawFilePath . fromOsPath do extra conversions back and forth between
String and ByteString. That overhead could be avoided, but that's the
non-optimised build mode, so didn't bother.

By using System.Directory.OsPath, which takes and returns OsString,
which is a ShortByteString. So, things like dirContents currently have the
overhead of copying that to a ByteString, but that should be less than
the overhead of using Strings which often in turn were converted to
RawFilePaths.
Added Utility.OsString and the OsString build flag. That flag is turned
on in the stack.yaml, and will be turned on automatically by cabal when
built with new enough libraries. The stack.yaml change is a bit ugly,
and that could be reverted for now if it causes any problems.
Note that Utility.OsString.toOsString on windows is avoiding only a
check of encoding that is documented as being unlikely to fail. I don't
think it can fail in git-annex; if it could, git-annex didn't contain
such an encoding check before, so at worst that should be a wash.
Added annex.pre-init-command git config and pre-init-annex hook that is run
before git-annex repository initialization.
This can block initialization. Or it can preform pre-initialization
configuration or tweaking.
I left stdio connected while it's running, so it could also be used for
interactive prompting conceivably, although that would want to use /dev/tty
anyway probably in order to not pollute the stdout of a command when
automatic initialization is done.
