Avoid spurious "verification of content failed" message when downloading
content from a ssh or tor remote fails due to the remote no longer having a
copy of the content.
The P2P protocol already handled this case by sending DATA 0, followed by
VALID. But VALID was not really right, because the data is not the
requested data. So, send DATA 0, followed by INVALID. Old versions of
git-annex handle INVALID the same as VALID in this case. Now new versions
avoid displaying an incorrect message.
It would be better for the P2P protocol to have a different way to indicate
this, like perhaps sending INVALID without DATA. But that would be a
breaking change and need a new protocol verison. Since INVALID already is
part of the protocol and already needs to be handled, using it for this
special case too seems ok, and avoids the complication of another protocol
version.

This is an edge case, which happened to be triggered by the P2P protocol
seeing DATA 0. When reading 0 bytes, getting an empty string does
not mean the handle has reached EOF.
I verified there was in fact a bug, where get of an empty file followed
by another file would get the empty file and then fail
with "handle is closed". This fixes it.

Reversion introduced in version 8.20201007, one release after the 1st
release with the extension.
Surprisingly, hClose can hang if another thread is reading from the
handle. This is because it uses takeMVar.
The use of cancel here does mean that, if receiveMessageAddonProcess
or Remote.External.AsyncExtension.receiveloop allocated some resource in
a non-async-exception safe way, they might not get a chance to clean it up.
They do not appear to, and anyway, this only happens when git-annex is
shutting down, so any recource that did leak would not be a problem.

Fix a bug that could make resuming a download from the web fail when the
entire content of the file is actually already present locally.
What a mess that Request can throw exceptions or not, depending on how
it's configured. Makes it very hard if you need to handle some specific
http status codes in a function like this! Implementing everything two
ways did not seem appealing, if possible at all, so I decided to
override the Request if it did come configured to throw exception on
non-2xx http status. Other exceptions, like from http-client-restricted,
or due to a redirect to a non-http url, still get thrown.

Prevent windows assistant from trying (and failing) to upgrade itself,
which has never been supported on windows.
The new windows build is made with UPGRADE_LOCATION set, which enabled this
code path that had never run on windows before, and doesn't work. I don't
want to try to support self-upgrade on windows, or generally on other OS's
than the ones where its working, so added a check for that. This way the
build can keep setting UPGRADE_LOCATION and if some later git-annex does
learn how to upgrade itself on some OS, it won't need changing the build
setup.
