Only done in -J mode because only if there's concurrency can downloading
from two remotes be faster. Without concurrency, it's likely the case that
sequential downloads from the same remote are faster than switching back
and forth between two remotes.
There is some hairy MVar code here, but basically it just keeps
the activeremotes MVar full except when deciding which remote to assign
to a thread.
Also affects gets by sync --content -J

Simplify Solver's task by requesting version 2.2.4.1 of the persistent
package instead of just providing the persistent < 2.5 constraint.
With only the persistent < 2.5 constraint, and with --flags=s3\ webapp
and --max-backjumps=10000, CI timed out after two hours with Solver
still trying to find a solution.
This is a follow-up to 18e458db, since there's been a regression in the
situation between 6.20160619 and 6.20160808, probably simply because
Hackage is a moving target.
And any other messages that might be output before a command starts.
Fixes a reversion introduced in version 5.20150727.
During the optparse-applicative conversion, I needed a place to run
per-command global option setters, and I made it get run during the seek stage. But
that is too late to have --json and --quiet disable output produced in the
check stage. Fix is just to run those per-command global option setters at
the same time as the all-command global option setters.

This was originally done in a7ef05a9, but got lost in some change to the
Makefile. Use CROSS_COMPILE=Android to tell configure that it's configuring
for android instead of passing it a parameter.
