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 preserves the workaround for the old bug that caused NoUUID items
to be stored in the log, prefixing log lines with " ". It's now handled
implicitly, by using takeWhile1 (/= ' ') to get the uuid.
There is a behavior change from the old parser, which split the value
into words and then recombined it. That meant that "foo bar" and "foo\tbar"
came out as "foo bar". That behavior was not documented, and seems
surprising; it meant that after a git-annex describe here "foo bar",
you wouldn't get that same string back out when git-annex displayed repo
descriptions.
Otoh, some other parsers relied on the old behavior, and the attoparsec
rewrites had to deal with the issue themselves...
For group.log, there are some edge cases around the user providing a
group name with a leading or trailing space. The old parser would ignore
such excess whitespace. The new parser does too, because the alternative
is to refuse to parse something like " group1 group2 " due to excess
whitespace, which would be even more confusing behavior.
The only git-annex branch log file that is not converted to attoparsec
and bytestring-builder now is transitions.log.
Flipped all comparisons. When a TrustLevel list was wanted from Trusted
downwards, used Down to compare it in that order.

This commit removes the Ord and Enum instances, commenting out all code
that depends on them, to make sure that all code effected by the
inversion fix has been identified.
(Assuming no ifdefs involve TrustLevel.)
The next commit will fix up all the identified code.
Wrote nice pure transition calculator, and ugly code to stage its results
into the git-annex branch. Also had to split up several Log modules
that Annex.Branch needed to use, but that themselves used Annex.Branch.
The transition calculator is limited to looking at and changing one file at
a time. While this made the implementation relatively easy, it precludes
transitions that do stuff like deleting old url log files for keys that are
being removed because they are no longer present anywhere.
