reconcileStaged populates the db, so scanAnnexedFiles does not need to
do it again. It still makes a pass over the HEAD tree, but populating
the db was most of the expensive part.
Benchmarking with 100,000 files, git-annex init now takes 40 seconds,
vs 37 seconds with the old, buggy version of this fix. It should be
possible to win those 3 precious seconds per 100k files back, in the
case when when annex.thin is not set, with improvements to reconcileStaged
that avoid needing this second pass.

This reverts commit 0f10f208a7.
The implementation of this turns out to be unsafe; it can lead to a keys
db deadlock. scanAnnexedFiles injects a call to inAnnex into
reconcileStaged, but inAnnex sometimes needs to read from the keys db,
which will try to re-open it when it's in the process of being opened.
The exclusive lock of gitAnnexKeysDbLock will then deadlock.
This needs to be done in some other way...
Rather than first deleting and then inserting, upsert lets the key
associated with a file be updated in place.
Benchmarked with 100,000 files, and an empty keys database, running
reconcileStaged. It improved from 47 seconds to 34 seconds.
So this got reconcileStaged to be as fast as scanAssociatedFiles,
or faster -- scanAssociatedFiles benchmarks at 37 seconds.
(Also checked for other users of deleteWhere that could be sped up by
upsert. There are a couple, but they are not in performance critical
code paths, eg recordExportTreeCurrent is only run once per tree
export.)
I would have liked to rename FileKeyIndex to FileKeyUnique since it is
being used as a uniqueness constraint now, not just to get an index.
But, that gets converted into part of the SQL schema, and the name
is used by the upsert, so it can't be changed.

reconcileStaged was doing a redundant scan to scannAnnexedFiles.
It would probably make sense to move the body of scannAnnexedFiles
into reconcileStaged, the separation does not really serve any purpose.

Commit 428c91606b made it need to do more
work in situations like switching between very different branches.
Compare with seekFilteredKeys which has a similar optimisation. Might be
possible to factor out the common part from these?

This is quite a subtle edge case, see the bug report for full details.
The second git diff is needed only when there's a merge conflict.
It would be possible to speed it up marginally by using
--diff-filter=Unmerged, but probably not enough to bother with.

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.
