When this option is not used, there should be effectively no added
overhead, thanks to the optimisation in
b3cd0cc6ba.
When an action fails on a file, the size of the file still counts toward
the size limit. This was necessary to support concurrency, but also
generally seems like the right choice.
Most commands that operate on annexed files support the option.
export and import do not, and I don't know if it would make sense for
export to.. Why would you want an incomplete export? sync doesn't, and
while it would be easy to make it support it for transferring files,
it's not clear if dropping files should also take the size limit into
account. Commands like add that don't operate on annexed files don't
support the option either.
Exiting 101 not yet implemented.

Avoids users thinking this scan is a big deal, when it's not in the
majority of repos.
showSideActionAfter has some ugly caveats, since it has to display in
the background of another action. I could not see a better way to do it
and it works fine in this particular case. It also doesn't really belong
in Annex.Concurrent, but cannot go in Messages due to an import loop.

It makes sense to keep the key used by the old version of an
associated file, until the merge conflict is resolved.
Note that, since in this case git diff is being run with --index, it's
not possible to use -1 or -3, which would let the keys
associated with the new versions of the file also be added. That would
be better, because it's possible that the local modification to the file
that caused the merge conflict has not yet gotten its new key recorded
in the db.
Opened a bug about a case this is thus not able to address.

There seems to be no reason to check the time here. I think it was
inherited from code in Database.Fsck, which does have a reason to commit
every few minutes. Removing that syscall speeds up a git-annex init
in a repo with 100000 annexed files by about 3 seconds.
