Allows using new special remote messages when git-annex supports them,
and avoiding using them when git-annex is too old. The new INFO is one
such message.
There's also the possibility, currently unused, for the special remote's
reply to include some kind of extensions of its own.
Merging this is blocked by https://github.com/datalad/datalad/issues/2124
since it seems it will break datalad. I checked all the other special
remotes and they will be ok.

It's left up to the special remote to detect when git-annex is new enough
to support the message; an old git-annex will blow up.

When a repo is in multiple standard groups,
Logs.PreferredContent.makeMatcher uses unknownMatcher,
so will not get everything, but instead defaults to wanting whatever is
present.
Added remote.<name>.annex-checkuuid config, which can be set to false to
disable the default checking of the uuid of remotes that point to
directories. This can be useful to avoid unncessary drive spin-ups and
automounting.
Note that the UUID check is still done before writing to the repository,
to avoid writing to the wrong repository if it got relocated. Check is
also done before checkPresent to avoid getting confused about what is in
which repo. This is effectively the same as the use of git-annex-shell
with a uuid to check that the remote repository is the expected one.
Did not bother with the check for retrieveKeyFile because it doesn't
matter if the wrong repo is used then.

And for tab completion, by not unnessessarily statting paths to remotes,
which used to cause eg, spin-up of removable drives.
Got rid of the remotes member of Git.Repo. This was a bit painful.
Remote.Git modifies the list of remotes as it reads their configs,
so still need a persistent list of remotes. So, put it in as
Annex.gitremotes. It's only populated by getGitRemotes, so commands
like examinekey that don't care about remotes won't do so.

The feeds for playlists seem pretty broken, since they have the oldest
items first and are truncated, so after a few dozen items, new items
never appear on them. Channel feeds don't currently have this breakage
(although perhaps Google will find a way to break them eventually..)
Fourth or fifth try at this and finally found a way to make it work.
Absurd amount of busy-work forced on me by change in cabal's behavior.
Split up Utility modules that need posix stuff out of ones used by
Setup. Various other hacks around inability for Setup to use anything
that ifdefs a use of unix.
Probably lost a full day of my life to this.
This is how build systems make their users hate them. Just saying.
