The webapp modules cannot build with the assistant disabled, so make the
webapp be under the assistant build flag.

--backend is no longer a global option, and is only accepted by commands
that actually need it.
Three commands that used to support backend but don't any longer are
watch, webapp, and assistant. It would be possible to make them support it,
but I doubt anyone used the option with these. And in the case of webapp
and assistant, the option was handled inconsistently, only taking affect
when the command is run with an existing git-annex repo, not when it
creates a new one.
Also, renamed GlobalOption etc to AnnexOption. Because there are many
options of this type that are not actually global (any more) and get
added to commands that need them.

Improve handling of parallelization with -J when copying content from/to a
git remote that is a local path.

When adding a small file, it does not get locked down, so can be modified
after git-annex checks that it's small. The use of queued git add made the
race window nice and wide too.
Fixed by checking if the file has changed, and by not using git add.
Instead, have to recapitulate git add's handling of things like symlinks
and executable files.

The remaining callers all did not rely on it checking gitignore, so were
easy to convert.
They were susceptable to the same overwrite race as add and fix,
although less likely to have it and a narrower window than add's race.
Command.Rekey in passing got an unncessary call to removeFile deleted.
addSymlink handles deleting any existing worktree file.
This is not a complete fix for all such races, only the one where a
large file gets changed while adding and gets added to git rather than
to the annex.
addLink needs to go away, any caller of it is probably subject to the
same kind of race. (Also, addLink itself fails to check gitignore when
symlinks are not supported.)
ingestAdd no longer checks gitignore. (It didn't check it consistently
before either, since there were cases where it did not run git add!)
When git-annex import calls it, it's already checked gitignore itself
earlier. When git-annex add calls it, it's usually on files found
by withFilesNotInGit, which handles checking ignores.
There was one other case, when git-annex add --batch calls it. In that
case, old git-annex behaved rather badly, it would seem to add the file,
but git add would later fail, leaving the file as an unstaged annex symlink.
That behavior has also been fixed.

move: Improve resuming a move that succeeded in transferring the content,
but where dropping failed due to eg a network problem, in cases where
numcopies checks prevented the resumed move from dropping the object from
the source repository.
This was earlier done for moves that got interrupted during the drop stage.

Fix retrival of an empty file that is stored in a special remote with
chunking enabled.
The speculative chunk stuff caused a reversion by adding an empty list for
the empty file. Which is just wrong; the empty file is still stored on the
remote, and should be retrieved like any other file. It uses 1 chunk, so
`max 1` is the simple fix.

rather than matching path of an existing remote to find the uuid.
The main benefit of this is that locations not using ssh:// will work
now, including both paths and host:/path
The other benefit is that it's a simpler interface, no need to have an
existing remote with the same url and some other name. Although that
will still work of course.
This does rely on tryGitConfigRead working when given a Git.Repo that is
not a remote. Luckily, it works fine that way.
Also, tryGitConfigRead will auto-init a local repo that has a git-annex
branch. I did not enable auto-init of ssh repos though.
The uuid discovery actually happens twice; initremote discovers it,
and uses it to store the special remote config, but does not set it in the
git remote it creates. So the next run of git-annex does uuid discovery
again, and caches it that time. This could be improved for a tiny
speedup, but I didn't want to complicate things for that in this
commit.
