This handles all sites where checkSuccessProcess/ignoreFailureProcess
is used, except for one: Git.Command.pipeReadLazy
That one will be significantly more work to convert to bracketing.
(Also skipped Command.Assistant.autoStart, but it does not need to
shut down the processes it started on exception because they are
git-annex assistant daemons..)
forceSuccessProcess is done, except for createProcessSuccess.
All call sites of createProcessSuccess will need to be converted
to bracketing.
(process pools still todo also)
This does not change the overall license of the git-annex program, which
was already AGPL due to a number of sources files being AGPL already.
Legally speaking, I'm adding a new license under which these files are
now available; I already released their current contents under the GPL
license. Now they're dual licensed GPL and AGPL. However, I intend
for all my future changes to these files to only be released under the
AGPL license, and I won't be tracking the dual licensing status, so I'm
simply changing the license statement to say it's AGPL.
(In some cases, others wrote parts of the code of a file and released it
under the GPL; but in all cases I have contributed a significant portion
of the code in each file and it's that code that is getting the AGPL
license; the GPL license of other contributors allows combining with
AGPL code.)
This is groundwork for letting a repo be instantiated the first time
it's actually used, instead of at startup.
The only behavior change is that some old special cases for xmpp remotes
were removed. Where before git-annex silently did nothing with those
no-longer supported remotes, it may now fail in some way.
The additional IO action should have no performance impact as long as
it's simply return.

Most of the time, there will be no discreprancy between programPath and
readProgramFile.
But, the programFile might have been written by an old version of git-annex
that is still installed, while a newer one is currently running. In this
case, we want to run the same one that's currently running.
This is especially important for things like the GIT_SSH=git-annex used for
ssh connection caching.
The only code that still uses readProgramFile directly is the upgrade code,
which needs to know where the standalone git-annex was installed, in order to
upgrade it.
* Remote system might be available, and connection get lost. Should
reconnect, but needs to avoid bad behavior (ie, constant reconnect
attempts.) Use exponential backoff.
* Detect if old system had a too old git-annex-shell, and show the user
a nice message in the webapp. Required parsing error messages, so perhaps
this code shoudl be removed once enough time has passed..
* Switch the protocol to using remote URI's, rather than remote names.
Names change. Also avoids issues with serialization of names containing
whitespace.
This is nearly ready for merge into master now. I'd still like to make the ssh
transport smarter about reusing ssh connection caching during git pull.

a ssh remote, and pulls.
XMPP is no longer needed in this configuration!
Requires the remote server have git-annex-shell with notifychanges support.
