Ignore annex.numcopies set to 0 in gitattributes or git config, or by
git-annex numcopies or by --numcopies, since that configuration would make
git-annex easily lose data. Same for mincopies.
This is a continuation of the work to make data only be able to be lost
when --force is used. It earlier led to the --trust option being disabled,
and similar reasoning applies here.
Most numcopies configs had docs that strongly discouraged setting it to 0
anyway. And I can't imagine a use case for setting to 0. Not that there
might not be one, but it's just so far from the intended use case of
git-annex, of managing and storing your data, that it does not seem like
it makes sense to cater to such a hypothetical use case, where any
git-annex drop can lose your data at any time.
Using a smart constructor makes sure every place avoids 0. Note that this
does mean that NumCopies is for the configured desired values, and not the
actual existing number of copies, which of course can be 0. The name
configuredNumCopies is used to make that clear.

Eg, before with a .gitattributes like:
*.2 annex.numcopies=2
*.1 annex.numcopies=1
And foo.1 and foo.2 having the same content and key, git-annex drop foo.1 foo.2
would succeed, leaving just 1 copy, despite foo.2 needing 2 copies.
It dropped foo.1 first and then skipped foo.2 since its content was gone.
Now that the keys database includes locked files, this longstanding wart
can be fixed.

Most of this is just refactoring. But, handleDropsFrom
did not verify that associated files from the keys db were still
accurate, and has now been fixed to.
A minor improvement to this would be to avoid calling catKeyFile
twice on the same file, when getting the numcopies and mincopies value,
in the common case where the same file has the highest value for both.
But, it avoids checking every associated file, so it will scale well to
lots of dups already.

This is conceptually very simple, just making a 1 that was hard coded be
exposed as a config option. The hard part was plumbing all that, and
dealing with complexities like reading it from git attributes at the
same time that numcopies is read.
Behavior change: When numcopies is set to 0, git-annex used to drop
content without requiring any copies. Now to get that (highly unsafe)
behavior, mincopies also needs to be set to 0. It seemed better to
remove that edge case, than complicate mincopies by ignoring it when
numcopies is 0.

This is a fairly hard to understand situation for the user. Listing the
remotes should help them understand it a bit better.

Finally builds (oh the agoncy of making it build), but still very
unmergable, only Command.Find is included and lots of stuff is badly
hacked to make it compile.
Benchmarking vs master, this git-annex find is significantly faster!
Specifically:
num files old new speedup
48500 4.77 3.73 28%
12500 1.36 1.02 66%
20 0.075 0.074 0% (so startup time is unchanged)
That's without really finishing the optimization. Things still to do:
* Eliminate all the fromRawFilePath, toRawFilePath, encodeBS,
decodeBS conversions.
* Use versions of IO actions like getFileStatus that take a RawFilePath.
* Eliminate some Data.ByteString.Lazy.toStrict, which is a slow copy.
* Use ByteString for parsing git config to speed up startup.
It's likely several of those will speed up git-annex find further.
And other commands will certianly benefit even more.
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.)
Running git-annex linux builds in termux seems to work well enough that the
only reason to keep the Android app would be to support Android 4-5, which
the old Android app supported, and which I don't know if the termux method
works on (although I see no reason why it would not).
According to [1], Android 4-5 remains on around 29% of devices, down from
51% one year ago.

This is a rather large commit, but mostly very straightfoward removal of
android ifdefs and patches and associated cruft.
Also, removed support for building with very old ghc < 8.0.1, and with
yesod < 1.4.3, and without concurrent-output, which were only being used
by the cross build.
Some documentation specific to the Android app (screenshots etc) needs
to be updated still.

move: Added --safe option, which makes move honor numcopies settings.
Also --unsafe enables the default behavior, anticipating that the
default may one day change.

By definition, a trusted repository is trusted to always have its location
tracking log accurate. Thus, it should never be in a position where content
is being dropped from it concurrently, as that would result in the location
tracking log not being accurate.
This avoids a failure where eg, we start with RecentlyVerifiedCopies
for all remotes, and so didn't do any active verification, which is
required.
Also, dedup the list of VerifiedCopies when checking if we have enough,
in case 2 copies of a UUID slip in.
See doc/bugs/concurrent_drop--from_presence_checking_failures.mdwn for
discussion about why 1 locked copy is all we can require, and how this
fixes concurrent dropping bugs.
Note that, since nothing yet generates a VerifiedCopyLock yet, this commit
breaks dropping temporarily.
There should be no behavior changes in this commit, it just adds a more
expressive data type and adjusts code that had been passing around a [UUID]
or sometimes a Maybe Remote to instead use [VerifiedCopy].
Although, since some functions were taking two different [UUID] lists,
there's some potential for me to have gotten it horribly wrong.
