POSIX character classes allowed in globs was a surprise, but just
happened to fall out of the implementation in a way that seems
to behave correctly.
mdwn2man has to be tweaked to render the example properly.
The line I modified is the one that strips ikiwiki wikilinks out of the
man page.

I noticed that, using just the man pages, there is no real description
of what backends are, or what ones are available. Except for some
examples.
Added a git-annex-backends man page, that is just a stub, but at least
describes what they basically are, and tells how to find the supported
ons, and links to the backends web page.

Importing from a special remote honors its preferred content too; unwanted
files are not imported. But, some preferred content expressions can't be
checked before files are imported, and trying to import with such an
expression will fail.
Tested this with scenarios including changing the preferred content
expression and making sure merging the import didn't delete files that were
no longer wanted.
There was one minor inefficiency mentioned in the todo that I punted on.
This includes a note about how include= and exclude= match when exporting
a subtree. I don't know if the note is prominent enough, but the
behavior seems unsurprising enough.
When a repo is in multiple standard groups,
Logs.PreferredContent.makeMatcher uses unknownMatcher,
so will not get everything, but instead defaults to wanting whatever is
present.
Added --securehash option to match files using a secure hash function, and
corresponding securehash preferred content expression.
