Support VERSION 2 in the external special remote protocol, which is
identical to VERSION 1, but avoids external remote programs neededing to
work around the above bug. External remote program that support
exporttree=yes are recommended to be updated to send VERSION 2.

Remote.Directory makes a temp file, then calls this, and since the temp
file exists, it prevented probing if CoW works.
Note that deleting the empty file does mean there's a small window for a
race. If another process is also exporting to the remote, that could let it
make the same temp file. However, the temp filename actually has the
processes's pid in it, which avoids that being a problem.
This may have been a reversion caused by commits around
63d508e885, but I haven't gone back and
tested to be sure. The directory special remote had supposedly supported
CoW for this going back to about half a year before that.

The temporary URL key used for the download, before the real key is
generated, was blocked by annex.securehashesonly.
Fixed by passing the Backend that will be used for the final key into
runTransfer. When a Backend is provided, have preCheckSecureHashes
check that, rather than the key being transferred.

view: Support annex.maxextensionlength when generating filenames for the
view branch.
Note that refining an existing view will reuse the extension length that was
configured when initially constructing the view. This is necessarily the case
because it reuses the filenames.
Also view files used to have all extensions at the end, no matter how
many there were. Since annex.maxextensionlength's documentation includes
that it's limited to 2 extensions, I made it consistent with that.

I don't know of scenarios where that can happen (besides the bug
fixed by the parent commit), but there probably are some.

Avoid failure to update adjusted branch --unlock-present after git-annex
drop when annex.adjustedbranchrefresh=1
At higher values, it did flush the queue, which ran restagePointerFiles.
But at 1, adjustedBranchRefreshFull gets added to the queue, and while
restagePointerFiles is also in the queue, it runs after that.

Such an url is not valid; parseURI will fail on it. But git-annex doesn't
actually need to parse the url, because all it needs to do to support
syncing with it is know that it's not a local path, and use git pull and
push.
(Note that there is no good reason for the user to use such an url. An
absolute url is valid and I patched git-remote-gcrypt to support them
years ago. Still, users gonna do anything that tools allow, and
git-remote-gcrypt still supports them.)

copy: When --from and --to are combined and the content is already present
on the destination remote, update location tracking as necessary.

A repository can have a newline in its description due to being in a
directory containing a newline, or due to git-annex describe being
passed a string with a newline in it for some reason. Putting that
newline in uuid.log breaks its format.
So, escape the newline when it enters uuid.log, to \n
This is a one-way escaping, it is not converted back to a newline
when reading the log. If it were, commands like git-annex info and
whereis would display a multi-line description, which could be confusing
to read.
And, implementing roundtripping would necessarily cause problems if an
old version of git-annex were used to set a description that contained
whatever special character is used to escape the \n. Eg, a \ or if
it used the ! prefix before base64 data that is used in some other logs,
the ! character. Then the description set by the old git-annex would not
roundtrip.
There just doesn't seem to be any benefit of roundtripping newlines through,
so why bother? And, git often displays \n for newline when a filename
contains a newline, so git-annex doing it in this case seems sorta ok
by analogy to git.
(Some other git-annex logs can also have newlines put into them if the
user really wants to break git-annex. For example:
git-annex config annex.largefiles "foo
bar"
The full list is probably config.log, remote.log, group.log,
preferred-content.log, required-content.log,
group-preferred-content.log, schedule.log. Probably there is no
good reason to use a newline in any of these, and the breakage is
probably limited to the bad data the user put in not coming back out.
And users can write any garbage to log files themselves manually in any
case. So, I am not going to address all of those at this time. If a
problem such as this one with the newline in the repository path comes
up, it can be dealt with on a case by case basis.)

git hash-object --stdin-paths is a newline protocol so it cannot
support them. It would help to not use absPath, when the problem
is that the repository itself is in a path with a newline. But,
there's a reason it used absPath, which is that
git hash-object --stdin-paths actually chdirs to the top of the
repository on startup! That is not documented, and I think is a bug
in git.
I considered making the path relative to the top of the repo, but
then what if this is a git bug and gets fixed? git-annex would break
horribly.
So instead, keep the absPath, but when the path contains a newline,
fall back to running git hash-object once per file, which avoids
the problem with newlines and --stdin-paths. It will be slower,
but this is an edge case. (Similar slow code paths are already used
elsewhere when dealing with filenames with newlines and other parts
of git that use line-based protocols.)

Added arm64 build for ancient kernels, needed to support Android phones
whose kernels are too old to support kernels used by the current arm64
build.
Updated Android/git-annex-install to use it. (Also made it use i386-ancient
because that seems like a good idea.)
