addurl: Improve message when adding url with wrong size to existing file.
Before the message suggested the url didn't exist.
Fixed handling of URL keys that have no recorded size. Before, if the key
has no size, the url also had to not declare any size, which was unlikely
and wrong, or it was taken to not exist. This probably would mostly affect
keys that were added to the annex with addurl --relaxed.
Overridable with --user-agent option.
Not yet done for S3 or WebDAV due to limitations of libraries used --
nether allows a user-agent header to be specified.

I was not able to reproduce the failure, but I did reproduce that
wget -O http://404/ results in an empty file being written.
* addurl: Escape invalid characters in urls, rather than failing to
use an invalid url.
* addurl: Properly handle url-escaped characters in file:// urls.
The code explicitly switches from HEAD to GET for most redirects.
Possibly because someone misread a spec (which does require switching from
POST to GET for 303 redirects). Or possibly because the spec really is that
bad. Upstream bug: https://github.com/haskell/HTTP/issues/24
Since we absolutely don't want to download entire (large) files from
the web when checking that they exist with HEAD, I wrote my own redirect
follower, based closely on the one used by Network.Browser, but without
this misfeature.
Note that Network.Browser checks that the redirect url is a http url
and fails if not. I don't, because I want to not need to change this
code when it gets https support (related: I'm surprised to see it
doesn't support https yet..). The check does not seem security significant;
it doesn't support file:// urls for example. If a http url is redirected
to https, the Network.Browser will actually make a http connection again.
This could loop, but only up to 5 times.
If there's no Content-Length, or the key has no size, this check is not
done, but it should happen most of the time, and protect against web
content that has changed.
