Fourth or fifth try at this and finally found a way to make it work.
Absurd amount of busy-work forced on me by change in cabal's behavior.
Split up Utility modules that need posix stuff out of ones used by
Setup. Various other hacks around inability for Setup to use anything
that ifdefs a use of unix.
Probably lost a full day of my life to this.
This is how build systems make their users hate them. Just saying.
And also now in non-fast mode, since it was just changed to query for the
filename separately.
And avoid processTranscript which mixed up stdout and stderr and could have
led to weirdness if there were warnings that didn't get suppressed.
addurl: When the file youtube-dl will download is already an annexed file,
don't download it again and fail to overwrite it, instead just do nothing,
like it used to when quvi was used.

Similar to c6e4bc0a22 but another code
path. As well as using youtube-dl unecessarily, it used the filename it
comes up with, which while nice for youtube videos, is not right for
other files.
This means more work is done for urls that youtube-dl does support,
but is probably more efficient for other urls, since it only downloads
the first chunk of content, while youtube-dl probably downloads more.

Now youtubeDlCheck downloads the beginning of the url's content and
checks if it's html, only when it is does it pass it off the youtube-dl
to check if it supports it.
This means more work is done for urls that youtube-dl does support,
but is probably more efficient for other urls, since it only downloads
the first chunk of content, while youtube-dl probably downloads more.
As well as the reported bug, this also fixes behavior when an url
was added with youtube-dl, but the url content has now changed from
a html page to something else. Remote.Web.checkKey used to wrongly
succeed in that situation, since youtube-dl said sure it can download
that something else.

Better to make it not be surprising and slow, than surprising and fast.
--raw can be used when it needs to be really fast.
Implemented adding a youtube-dl supported url to an existing file.

Decided not to --ignore-config by default. It the user has something in
their youtube-dl config files that breaks git-annex they can configure
it to use that option.
Including resuming and cleanup of incomplete downloads.
Still todo: --fast, --relaxed, importfeed, disk reserve checking,
quvi code cleanup.
