This is a nice win; much less code runs in Annex, so other threads have
more chances to run concurrently.
I do notice that renaming a file has gone from 1 to 2 commits. I think this
is due to the above improvement letting the committer run more frequently,
so it commits the rm first.
Makes it safe to use git annex unlock with the watcher/assistant.
And also to mix use of the watcher/assistant with regular files stored in git.
Long ago, I had avoided doing this check, except during the startup scan,
because it would be slow to run ls-files repeatedly.
But then I added the lsof check, and to make that fast, got it to detect
batch file adds. So let's move the ls-files check to also occur when it'll
have a batch, and can check them all with one call.
This does slow down adding a single file by just a bit, but really only
a little bit. (The lsof check is probably more expensive.) It also
speeds up the startup scan, especially when there are lots of new files
found by the scan.
Also, fixed the sleep for annex.delayadd to not run while the threadstate
lock is held, so it doesn't unnecessarily freeze everything else.
Also, --force no longer makes it skip the lsof check, which was not
documented, and seems never a good idea.
Rethought how to keep track of pending adds that need to be retried later.
The commit thread already run up every second when there are changes,
so let's keep pending adds queued as changes until they're safe to add.
Also, the committer is now smarter about avoiding empty commits when
all the adds are currently unsafe, or in the rare case that an add event
for a symlink is not received in time. It may avoid them entirely.
This seems to work as before for inotify, and is untested for kqueue.
(Actually commit batching seems to be improved for inotify, although I'm
not sure why. I'm seeing only two commits made during large batch
operations, and the first of those is the non-batch mode commit.)
