Debian is going to drop youtube-dl which is not active upstream, and yt-dlp
is the replacement. This will make it be used if youtube-dl gets removed.
If an old version of youtube-dl remains installed, git-annex will still use
it. That might not be desirable, but changing git-annex to use yt-dlp in
preference to youtube-dl when both are installed risks breaking when
the user has annex.youtube-dl-options set to something that is supported
by youtube-dl, but not by yt-dlp.

init: Avoid scanning for annexed files, which can be lengthy in a
large repository. Instead that scan is done on demand. This lets git-annex
init be run and some query commands be used in a repository without
waiting.
Note that autoinit already behaved this way, so while this will mean some
commands like git-annex get/unlock/add will do the scan the first time run,
that is not really a significant behavior change.
And, it's really better to have a consistent behavior. The reason for
the inconsistency was a strange bug discussed in
b3c4579c79. Avoiding reconcileStaged in
init will keep avoiding whatever that was.

Increasing the size of the queue 10x makes git-annex init 7% faster in a
repository with 86000 annexed files.
The memory use goes up, from 70876 kb to 85376 kb.
Avoids database querying overhead when the database is newly created.
In the large repository where git-annex init took 24 seconds, this sped it
up to 20.47 seconds, a speedup of around 15%.
