linux standalone: Generate locale files in ~/.cache/git-annex/locales/ so
they're available even when the standalone tarball is installed in a
directory owned by root.
This avoids a full-on reference counting cleanup hell, by letting old
locale caches linger as long as the standalone bundle directory associated
with them is still around. Old ones get cleaned up.
In the case where the directory has a new bundle unpacked over top of it,
the old locale cache is invalidated and rebuilt. Of course, running
programs using that may get confused, but this was already the case, and
unpacking over top of a bundle is probably not a good idea anyhow.
To support that, added a buildid file, which only needs to be unique across
builds of git-annex with different libc versions. sha1sum of git-annex
seems good enough for that.
Removed debian/patches/standalone-no-LOCPATH as it's no longer
necessary.

This avoid a build problem when different versions of posix and
posixcompat are used. Does not normally happen as cabal prevents that,
but this is sometimes used with ghc --make which can get into that
situation.
p2p --pair: Fix interception of the magic-wormhole pairing code, which
since 0.8.2 it has sent to stderr rather than stdout.
This is highly annoying because I had asked the magic wormhole developers
for a machine-readable way to get the data, and instead they changed how
the data was output, and didn't even mention this in my issue, or in the
changelog.
Seems this needs to be tested periodically to make sure it's still working.

Fix reversion introduced in version 6.20180316 that caused git-annex to
stop processing files when unable to contact a ssh remote.
The bug was not in any of the changed lines, but this one in inAnnex:
P2PHelper.checkpresent (Ssh.runProto rmt connpool (cantCheck rmt) fallback) key
cantCheck throws an exception, but that parameter to runProto expects a
value, which it returns. So, inAnnex is returning a Bool containing an
exception. This defeats the usual checks for checkPresent throwing an
exception, crashing git-annex.
Fixed by making runProto take an `Annex a` instead of an `a`, so
passing cantCheck to it doesn't nest exceptions.
