The tricky thing about this turned out to be handling renames and reverts.
For that, it has to make two passes over the git log, and to avoid
buffering a possibly huge amount of logs in memory (ie the whole git log of
an entire repository!), runs git log twice.
(It might be possible to speed this up by asking git log to show a diff,
and so avoid needing to use catKey.)

Removed the dontCheck repoExists, because running it in a repo that has not
been initialized yet would update location log with nouuid. And I guess
it's ok for it to only support running in git-annex repos.
Only display warning when git-annex sync (without --content or
--no-content) is used with repositories that have preferred content
configured.

I considered a more wide-ranging config option to make other commands
also show dead repositories. But it would be difficult to implement that
because Remote.keyLocations is used to get locations, filtering out dead
repos, and commands like get then try to use those locations. So a config
setting would make dead repos sometimes be acted on by commands.

Using == and != proved too hard to read, so went with [TRUE] and [FALSE]
after the term. I would kind of liked to have used emojis for a green
check and red X, but probably that is too fancy to be a good idea.
Make --explain output be inside [ ] with whitespace around them, to
avoid it ending with eg "[FALSE]]" and to make it easier to visually
find the start of it.
