... to avoid it consuming stdin that it shouldn't.
This fixes git-annex-checkpresentkey --batch remote, which didn't output
results for all keys passed into it.
Other git-annex commands that communicate with a remote over ssh may also
have been consuming stdin that they shouldn't have, which could have
impacted using them in eg, shell scripts. For example, a shell script
reading files from stdin and passing them to git annex drop would be
impacted by this bug, whenever git annex drop ran git-annex-shell
checkpresent, it would consume part/all of the stdin that the shell script
was supposed to consume.
Fixed by adding a ConsumeStdin parameter to Annex.Ssh.sshOptions, which
is used throughout git-annex to run ssh (in order for ssh connection
caching to work). Every call site was checked to see if it used
CreatePipe for stdin, and if not was marked NoConsumeStdin.
Refactored some common code into initDb.
This only deals with the problem when creating new databases. If a repo
got bad permissions into it, it's up to the user to deal with it.

Git does not provide a switch to find out where this directory is, and
while the git-init man page says it will always be in
/usr/share/git-core/templates, that's not the case on OSX with git
installed from homebrew. So, I used a hack taking the --man-path and
constructing a path from that. Works on both Debian and OSX at least.
