Eg when the destination is logged as containing a file, skip
actively checking that it does contain it.
Note that --fast does not prevent other verifications of content
location that are done in a copy --from --to. Perhaps it could, but this
change will already avoid the real unnecessary work of operating on
files that are already in the remote.
And avoiding other verifications
might cause it to fail if the location log thinks that --to does not
contain the content but does. Such complications with `git-annex copy
--to remote --fast` led to commit d006586cd0
which added a note that gets displayed when that fails, mentioning it
might be due to --fast being enabled.
copy --from --to is already complicated enough without needing to worry
about such edge cases, so continuing to doing some verification of
content location after the initial --fast filtering seems ok.

This allows getting rid of the ugly and error prone handling of
"bag of bytes" String in Remote.Helper.Encryptable.
Avoiding breakage like that dealt with by commit
9862d64bf9
And allows converting Utility.Gpg to use ByteString for IO, which is
a welcome change.
Tested the new git-annex interoperability with old, using all 3
encryption= types.

The crash occurred because writeCreds got called twice, and writeFileProtected
neglected to close its file handle, so the file was open for write when
written the second time.
It seems unncessary and suboptimal that writeCreds gets called twice.
One call is from getRemoteCredPair and the other from setRemoteCredPair'.
What happens is that in the enableremote case, code that also runs at
initremote does unncessary work. Might be possible to improve that, but
I've gone for the simple fix.

git-annex only writes regular files there, but other things may drop junk
like empty .DAV directories around the tree. And trying to hash such things
can have weird and hard to understand effects. So it seems best to do a
small amount of work in statting the journal file to make sure it's a
regular file.
