* 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.

This is to improve this case:
joey@darkstar:~/tmp/yyyy>git-annex trust
git-annex: no remote specified
The command does not need to be run with a remote, any repository name
will do, including eg "here".

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.

Well, actually, fix a typo that has always been in the implementation of
that. "inbacked" used to work, but let's not tell users about that; they
might try to use it and expect git-annex to keep supporting the typo..

I noticed that, using just the man pages, there is no real description
of what backends are, or what ones are available. Except for some
examples.
Added a git-annex-backends man page, that is just a stub, but at least
describes what they basically are, and tells how to find the supported
ons, and links to the backends web page.
