AFAICS all git-annex builds are using the git-lfs library not the vendored
copy.
Debian stable does have a too old haskell-git-lfs package to be able to
build git-annex from source, but there is not currently a backport of a
recent git-annex to Debian stable. And if they update the backport at some
point, they should be able to backport the library too.

This reverts commit 15dd7fe84b.
aws 0.23 is not used any longer, so read-only S3 import won't be
supported yet when building with stack.
That commit broke the build on windows, because the new version of Win32 that
was included (because the old one does not work with this lts version)
needs a version of filepath that is newer than the one bundled with the
ghc in that lts version. It is not possible to override that to a newer
filepath.
Seems that the only solution to get aws 0.23 will be to wait for a ghc that
contains filepath 1.4.100.0. No ghc yet contains it. (Backporting the Win32
fix to a point release version that does not include this bleeding edge
filepath would also resolve it, but seems unlikely to happen.)

This allows building with aws-0.23
Win32-2.13.4.0 contains a function that is not in lts-19.32 yet. Adding
it to stack.yaml does not seem to cause problems when building on linux.
aws-0.23 has been released.
When built with an older aws, initremote will error out when run
with signature=anonymous. And when a remote has been initialized with
that by a version of git-annex that does support it, older versions will
fail when the remote is accessed, with a useful error message.

This can be used, for example, with importtree=yes to import from a public
bucket.
This needs a patch that has not yet landed in the aws library, and will
need to be adjusted to support compiling with old versions of the library,
so is not yet suitable for merging.
See https://github.com/aristidb/aws/pull/281
The stack.yaml changes are provided to show how to build against the aws
fork and will need to be reverted as well.

For some reason, cabal 3.4.1.0 builds w/o the assistant and webapp,
even when the flag is explicitly turned on. Moving the build-depends from
inside the if flag section to the main build-depends somehow fixes this.
Since the webapp build deps are thus always available, there is no reason
not to build the webapp when building the assistant. So, got rid of the
webapp build flag. Kept the assistant build flag for now, since building
without it does at least still speed up the build.

This reverts commit b5dc04099e.
Broke windows build, because the new lts updates Win32 to a version that
lacks a function that git-annex needs. git-annex.cabal depends on an
older Win32, and so stack build fails.
Will need to wait to update stack.yaml until this is fixed
https://github.com/haskell/win32/issues/208
and is in a new LTS release.
This has not been needed since stack <1.4.0, and even the i386ancent
build uses stack 2.1.1.
Stack 2.7.5 seems to have forgotten about this old config and warns
about it, so this avoids that warning.
The libtinfo-dev was added to the docs at the same time, I assume it is
also not necessary.
Last try at this broke on windows with a problem installing ghc, but I
wanted to try again.
Also this has a version of aws that allows using aeson 2.0, which has a
potential security fix.
This reverts commit d2bc268317.
That seemed to break building on windows, before it starts building
git-annex at all, it tried to install ghc and something blew up:
Processing archive: C:\Users\runneradmin\AppData\Local\Programs\stack\x86_64-windows\ghc-9.0.2.tar.xz
Extracting ghc-9.0.2.tar

Hopefully a newer ghc version or updated stackage version will fix this
at some point, in the meantime revert it.
The webapp modules cannot build with the assistant disabled, so make the
webapp be under the assistant build flag.

Removed vendored copy of http-client-restricted, and removed the
HttpClientRestricted build flag that avoided that dependency.
http-client-restricted is in Debian stable, and the i386ancient build also
uses it, so I think this vendored copy is no longer needed.

Only turning it off when the criterion library is not installed.
Not enabled for osx or i386ancient yet since that will need some
invesitgation to update their respective stack.yaml files.
So these special remotes are always supported.
IIRC these build flags were added because the dep chains were a bit too
long, or perhaps because the libraries were not available in Debian stable,
or something like that. That was long ago, those reasons no longer apply,
and users get confused when builtin special remotes are not available, so
it seems best to remove the build flags now.
If this does cause a problem it can be reverted of course..

In stack-lts-12.14.yaml, there were dep issues using the new libraries,
which may not be resolvable with those old versions. Didn't check, just
disabled using the libraries there, which will hold us for a couple
years.
(It would probably be easy enough to relax some of the dep versions in
http-client-restricted and git-lfs to the older versions.)
Otherwise use the vendored copy as before.
The library is in Debian testing but not stable. Once it reaches
stable, the vendored copy can be removed.
Did not add it to debian/control because IIRC that's used to build
git-annex on stable too, possibly. However, the Debian maintainer will
probably want to make the package depend on libghc-http-client-restricted-dev

git-annex find is now RawFilePath end to end, no string conversions.
So is git-annex get when it does not need to get anything.
So this is a major milestone on optimisation.
Benchmarks indicate around 30% speedup in both commands.
Probably many other performance improvements. All or nearly all places
where a file is statted use RawFilePath now.
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.
13.27 failed on OSX:
Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:
"_utimensat", referenced from:
_c7zP_info in libHSunix-2.7.2.2.a(Files.o)
Which seems likely to be a compilation problem?
The cabal file does not yet demand this version because it's not in Debian
yet and only affects use of certian broken http servers, but let's use it
when it's easily available.
Like with the network-uri split, cabal will automatically turn off the flag
when building with an old network.
I have not tested building with the new network-3.0.0.0 yet; several
other dependencies including aws are still pinned on network-2.*
And added stack-lts-9.9.yaml to support old versions of stack.
The i386 ancient autobuilder needs stack-lts-9.9.yaml; the OSX autobuilder
may also use it for a while, and it's needed to build on eg debian stable.
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.
