"git annex adjust" may be a temporary interface, but works for a proof of
concept.
It is pretty fast at creating the adjusted branch. The main overhead is
injecting pointer files. It might be worth optimising that by reusing the
symlink target as the pointer file content. When I tried to do that,
the problem was that the clean filter doesn't use that same format, and so
git thought files had changed. Could be dealt with, perhaps make the clean
filter use symlink format for pointer files when on an adjusted branch?
But the real overhead is in checking out the branch, when git runs the
smudge filter once per file. That is perhaps too slow to be usable,
although it may only affect initial checkout of the branch, and not
updates. TBD.
* Removed the webapp-secure build flag, rolling it into the webapp build
flag.
* Removed the quvi and tahoe build flags, which only adds aeson to
the core dependencies.
* Removed the feed build flag, which only adds feed to the core
dependencies.
Build flags have cost in both code complexity and also make Setup configure
have to work harder to find a usable set of build flags when some
dependencies are missing.
The benchmark shows that the database access is quite fast indeed!
And, it scales linearly to the number of keys, with one exception,
getAssociatedKey.
Based on this benchmark, I don't think I need worry about optimising
for cases where all files are locked and the database is mostly empty.
In those cases, database access will be misses, and according to this
benchmark, should add only 50 milliseconds to runtime.
(NB: There may be some overhead to getting the database opened and locking
the handle that this benchmark doesn't see.)

The git filter config can be used to map the single git-annex command to
the 2 actions, and this avoids "git annex clean" being used for this thing,
it might have a better use for that name later.
This is a work in progress. It compiles and is able to do basic command
dispatch, including git autocorrection, while using optparse-applicative
for the core commandline parsing.
* Many commands are temporarily disabled before conversion.
* Options are not wired in yet.
* cmdnorepo actions don't work yet.
Also, removed the [Command] list, which was only used in one place.
* sync: Use the ssh-options git config when doing git pull and push.
* remotedaemon: Use the ssh-options git config.
Note that the rename env var means that if a new git-annex calls an old one
for git-annex ssh, or a new calls an old, nothing much will go wrong;
just ssh caching won't happen.
