test: When limiting tests to run with -p, work around tasty limitation by
automatically including dependent tests.
This fixes a reversion because it didn't used to use dependencies and
forced tasty to run the init tests first. That changed when parallelizing
the test suite.
It will sometimes do a little more work than strictly required,
because it adds init tests deps when limited to eg quickcheck tests,
which don't depend on them. But this only adds a few seconds work.

This reverts windows-specific parts of 5a98f2d509
There were no code paths in common between windows and unix, so this
will return Windows to the old behavior.
The problem that the commit talks about has to do with multiple different
locations where git-annex can store annex object files, but that is not
too relevant to Windows anyway, because on windows the filesystem is always
treated as criplled and/or symlinks are not supported, so it will only
use one object location. It would need to be using a repo populated
in another OS to have the other object location in use probably.
Then a drop and get could possibly lead to a dangling lock file.
And, I was not able to actually reproduce that situation happening
before making that commit, even when I forced a race. So making these
changes on windows was just begging trouble..
I suspect that the change that caused the reversion is in
Annex/Content/Presence.hs. It checks if the content file exists,
and then called modifyContentDirWhenExists, which seems like it would
not fail, but if something deleted the content file at that point,
that call would fail. Which would result in an exception being thrown,
which should not normally happen from a call to inAnnexSafe. That was a
windows-specific change; the unix side did not have an equivilant
change.

setEnv is not thread safe and could cause a getEnv by another thread to
segfault, or perhaps other had behavior. This is particularly a problem
when using tasty, because tasty runs the test in a thread, and a getEnv
in another thread.
The use of top-level TMVars is ugly, but ok because only 1 test actually
runs at a time per process. Because it has to chdir into the test repo.
The setEnv that remains happens before tasty is running.

The purpose of this is to fix situations where the annex object file is
stored in a directory structure other than where annex symlinks point to.
But it will also move object files from the hashdirmixed back to
hashdirlower if the repo configuration makes that the normal location.
It would have been more work to avoid that than to let it do it.

If the content directory does not exist, then it does not make sense to
lock the content file, as it also does not exist, and so it's ok for the
lock operation to fail.
This avoids potential races where the content file exists but is then
deleted/renamed, while another process sees that it exists and goes to
lock it, resulting in a dangling lock file in an otherwise empty object
directory.
Also renamed modifyContent to modifyContentDir since it is not only
necessarily used for modifying content files, but also other files in
the content directory.

Added support for "megabit" and related bandwidth units in
annex.stalldetection and everywhere else that git-annex parses data units.
Note that the short form is "Mbit" not "Mb" because that differs from "MB"
only in case, and git-annex parses units case-insensitively. It would be
horrible if two different versions of git-annex parsed the same value
differently, so I don't think "Mb" can be supported.
See comment for bonus sad story from my childhood.
