fix: Support --json and --json-error-messages
And triaged out some commands that don't need to support these options.

split out common options to its own page and mention it on each subcommand page
Sometimes users would get confused because an option they were looking
for was not mentioned on a subcommand's man page, and they had not
noticed that the main git-annex man page had a list of common options.
This change lets each subcommand mention the common options, similarly
to how the matching options are handled.

annex.thin
Decided it's too scary to make v6 unlocked files have 1 copy by default,
but that should be available to those who need it. This is consistent with
git-annex not dropping unused content without --force, etc.

* Added annex.thin setting, which makes unlocked files in v6 repositories
  be hard linked to their content, instead of a copy. This saves disk
  space but means any modification of an unlocked file will lose the local
  (and possibly only) copy of the old version.
* Enable annex.thin by default on upgrade from direct mode to v6, since
  direct mode made the same tradeoff.
* fix: Adjusts unlocked files as configured by annex.thin.

21ec5872f4 expand manpages cross-references significantly
i found that most man pages only had references to the main git-annex
manpage, which i stillfind pretty huge and hard to navigate through.

i tried to sift through all the man pages and add cross-references
between relevant pages. my general rule of thumb is that links should
be both ways unless one of the pages is a more general page that would
become ridiculously huge if all backlinks would be added
(git-annex-preferred-content comes to mind).

i have also make the links one per line as this is how it was done in
the metadata pages so far.

i did everything but the plumbing, utility and test commands, although
some of those are linked from the other commands so cross-links were
added there as well.
