Test suite passes this time. When committing the adjusted branch, use
the old method to make a message that old git-annex can consume. Also
made the code accept the new message, so that eventually
commitTreeExactMessage can be removed.

This reverts commit cee12f6a2f.
This commit broke git-annex init run in a repo that was cloned from a
repo with an adjusted branch checked out.
The problem is that findAdjustingCommit was not able to identify the
commit that created the adjusted branch. It seems that there is an extra
"\n" at the end of the commit message that it does not expect.
Since backwards compatability needs to be maintained, cannot just make
findAdjustingCommit accept it with the "\n". Will have to instead
have one commitTree variant that uses the old method, and use it for
adjusted branch committing.
sync, assist, import: Allow -m option to be specified multiple times, to
provide additional paragraphs for the commit message.
The option parser didn't allow multiple -m before, so there is no risk of
behavior change breaking something that was for some reason using multiple
-m already.
Pass through to git commands, so that the method used to assemble the
paragrahs is whatever git does. Which might conceivably change in the
future.
Note that git commit-tree has supported -m since git 1.7.7. commitTree
was probably not using it since it predates that version. Since the
configure script prevents building git-annex with git older than 2.1,
there is no risk that it's not supported now.

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.
