* config: Added the --show-origin and --for-file options.
* config: Support annex.numcopies and annex.mincopies.
There is a little bit of redundancy here with other code elsewhere that
combines the various configs and selects which to use. But really only
for the special case of annex.numcopies, which is a git config that does
not override the annex branch setting and for annex.mincopies, which does
not have a git config but does have gitattributes settings as well as the
annex branch setting.
That seems small enough, and unlikely enough to grow into a mess that it was
worth supporting annex.numcopies and annex.mincopies in git-annex config
--show-origin. Because these settings are a prime thing that someone might
get confused about and want to know where they were configured.
And, it followed that git-annex config might as well support those two
for --set and --get as well. While this is redundant with the speclialized
commands, it's only a little code and it makes it more consistent.
Note that --set does not have as nice output as numcopies/mincopies
commands in some special cases like setting to 0 or a negative number.
It does avoid setting to a bad value thanks to the smart
constructors (eg configuredNumCopies).
As for other git-annex branch configurations that are not set by git-annex
config, things like trust and wanted that are specific to a repository
don't map to a git config name, so don't really fit into git-annex config.
And they are only configured in the git-annex branch with no local override
(at least so far), so --show-origin would not be useful for them.

Large speed up to importing trees from special remotes that contain a lot
of files, by only processing changed files.
Benchmarks:
Importing from a special remote that has 10000 files, that have all been
imported before, and 1 new file sped up from 26.06 to 2.59 seconds.
An import with no change and 10000 unchanged files sped up from 24.3 to
1.99 seconds.
Going up to 20000 files, an import with no changes sped up from
125.95 to 3.84 seconds.

Consistency with sync and internal consistency is more important than
consistency with the assistant, which is not itself consistent about
what it does when run in a subdirectory.
Note that with -C, it will still commit staged changes to files outside
the directory. Like sync does. Presumably if the user is manually
staging things, then running this command, they intend to build up a
commit.

assist: New command, which is the same as git-annex sync but with
new files added and content transferred by default.
(Also this fixes another reversion in git-annex sync,
--commit --no-commit, and --message were not enabled, oops.)
See added comment for why git-annex assist does commit staged
changes elsewhere in the work tree, but only adds files under
the cwd.
Note that it does not support --no-commit, --no-push, --no-pull
like sync does. My thinking is, why should it? If you want that
level of control, use git commit, git annex push, git annex pull.
Sync only got those options because pull and push were not split
out.

When used without --content or --no-content, warn about the upcoming
transition, and suggest using one of the options, or setting
annex.synccontent.
