This avoids needing to bind to the right port before something else
does.
The socket is in /var/run/user/$uid/ which ought to be writable by only
that uid. At least it is on linux systems using systemd.
For Windows, may need to revisit this and use ports or something.
The first version of tor to support sockets for hidden services
was 0.2.6.3. That is not in Debian stable, but is available in
backports.

I've long considered the XMPP support in git-annex a wart.
It's nice to remove it.
(This also removes the NetMessager, which was only used for XMPP, and the
daemonstatus's desynced list (likewise).)
Existing XMPP remotes should be ignored by git-annex.

Tor unfortunately does not come out of the box configured to let hidden
services register themselves on the fly via the ControlPort.
And, changing the config to enable the ControlPort and a particular type
of auth for it may break something already using the ControlPort, or
lessen the security of the system.
So, this leaves only one option to us: Add a hidden service to the
torrc. git-annex enable-tor does so, and picks an unused high port for
tor to listen on for connections to the hidden service.
It's up to the caller to somehow pick a local port to listen on
that won't be used by something else. That may be difficult to do..

Yesod didn't used to do auth checks for that, but this may have changed.
I don't have a way to reproduce the reported problem yet, but this change
certianly won't hurt anything.

ghc 8.0.2 may make this unncessary, but it's not in a stackage version yet,
so put in a workaround.
Note that the linux builds already delete the RPATHs for similar reasons.
