This was an attempt at continuing the RawFilePath transition into an
OsPath transition. Unforunately, it had multiple test suite failures on
windows. Debugging those seems that it would be more work than the
minor optimisation value of this.
Test suite failure looks like this:
fatal: could not open '\\?\C:\Users\appveyor\AppData\Local\Temp\1\hash-cc81b41d-dfda-4ae8-904b-b531742443cc' for reading: No such file or directory

git-annex: fd:4: Data.ByteString.hGetLine: end of file
git-annex: user error (git ["--git-dir=.git","--work-tree=.","--literal-pathspecs","hash-object","-w","--no-filters","--stdin-paths"] exited 128)
This is apparently in Git.HashObject, and probably in hashBlob, which uses a
temp file with a name starting with "hash", but I have not been able to tell
what's wrong.
I don't understand where the "\\?" path prefix (windows UNC-style path)
is coming from in the path that gets fed into git hash-file, or why git
hash-file can't open the file.
After recent changes to use OsPath, test suite fails on windows with:
Exception: Uneven number of bytes: 5. This is not a Word16 bytestream.
Hopefully this fixes it. The innefficiency of the conversion is
unfortunate.
keyFile has a nice improvement; since a Key is a ShortByteString, it can
be converted to an OsPath without needing the copy that was done before.
Unfortunately, fileKey has to convert from a ShortByteString to a
ByteString in order to use attoparsec, and then the results get
converted back to an OsPath, so there are now 2 copies.
Maybe attoparsec will eventually get a ShortByteString API,
see https://github.com/haskell/attoparsec/issues/225

Taking a ShortByteString and using OverloadedStrings should avoid it
being converted from a String.
The reason there is no IsString instance for OsPath is presumably the
bad behavior of IsString for ByteString on unicode btw. But
literalOsPath won't be used with unicode in git-annex.
