Like with the network-uri split, cabal will automatically turn off the flag
when building with an old network.
I have not tested building with the new network-3.0.0.0 yet; several
other dependencies including aws are still pinned on network-2.*
And added stack-lts-9.9.yaml to support old versions of stack.
The i386 ancient autobuilder needs stack-lts-9.9.yaml; the OSX autobuilder
may also use it for a while, and it's needed to build on eg debian stable.
Running git-annex linux builds in termux seems to work well enough that the
only reason to keep the Android app would be to support Android 4-5, which
the old Android app supported, and which I don't know if the termux method
works on (although I see no reason why it would not).
According to [1], Android 4-5 remains on around 29% of devices, down from
51% one year ago.

This is a rather large commit, but mostly very straightfoward removal of
android ifdefs and patches and associated cruft.
Also, removed support for building with very old ghc < 8.0.1, and with
yesod < 1.4.3, and without concurrent-output, which were only being used
by the cross build.
Some documentation specific to the Android app (screenshots etc) needs
to be updated still.

Test suite is always included.
Building with this flag disabled has actually been broken for some time,
since Command.TestRemote uses tasty. Fewer build flags are better, so good
time to drop it.

esqueleto finally got fixed, thanks to @bitemyapp
Since XMPP was removed, the previous build failures related to it should
no longer be a problem either.
Meanwhile, lts-5.18 fails to build anymore on Debian due to linker
hardening breaking the version of ghc stack uses with that version.

I've long considered the XMPP support in git-annex a wart.
It's nice to remove it.
(This also removes the NetMessager, which was only used for XMPP, and the
daemonstatus's desynced list (likewise).)
Existing XMPP remotes should be ignored by git-annex.

This reverts commit e181603103.
This broke the i386ancient autobuilder due to its use of
--flag git-annex:XMPP --flag=git-annex:dbus
-- Failure when adding dependencies:
fdo-notify: needed ((>=0.3)), stack configuration has no specified version
(latest applicable is 0.3.1)
gnutls: needed ((>=0.1.4)), stack configuration has no specified version
(latest applicable is 0.2)
network-protocol-xmpp: needed (-any), stack configuration has no specified
version (latest applicable is 0.4.8)
OSX autobuilder also seems hosed by it, so too soon.
De-revert later..
When it was enabled by default, stack tried to install the haskell magic
library, but that fails on systems without libmagic dev. So, we need to
disable this by default for stack, it seems.
Make these features solely dependent on the OS being built on.
This lets stack build on windows w/o XMPP, on OSX w/o DBUS,
and on Linux with everything.
Since stack is being used to build the OSX autouild now, I want xmpp
enabled.
This means stack can't be used to build git-annex on windows, unless the
user edits this file and disables xmpp. Unfortunate that stack is so
unconfigurable, compared with cabal..
Update install instructions.
Note that xmpp is disabled in the stack.yaml, because that needs C
libraries that would take extra work for the user to install.
xmpp is moving toward deprecation anyway.
