Support working trees set up by git-worktree, by setting up some symlinks
such that git-annex links work right.
Also improved support for repositories created with --separate-git-dir.
At least recent git makes a .git file for those (older may have used a
symlink?), so that also needs to be converted to a symlink.

Work around git bug that runs smudge/clean filters at the top of the
repository while passing them a relative GIT_WORK_TREE that may point
outside of the repository, by using GIT_PREFIX to get back to the
subdirectory where a relative GIT_WORK_TREE is valid.
git devs have been informed of the bug and may fix it, which could conveivably
break this fix, but as it is, this works back to git 1.7.6.

linux standalone: Generate locale files in ~/.cache/git-annex/locales/ so
they're available even when the standalone tarball is installed in a
directory owned by root.
This avoids a full-on reference counting cleanup hell, by letting old
locale caches linger as long as the standalone bundle directory associated
with them is still around. Old ones get cleaned up.
In the case where the directory has a new bundle unpacked over top of it,
the old locale cache is invalidated and rebuilt. Of course, running
programs using that may get confused, but this was already the case, and
unpacking over top of a bundle is probably not a good idea anyhow.
To support that, added a buildid file, which only needs to be unique across
builds of git-annex with different libc versions. sha1sum of git-annex
seems good enough for that.
Removed debian/patches/standalone-no-LOCPATH as it's no longer
necessary.

This avoid a build problem when different versions of posix and
posixcompat are used. Does not normally happen as cabal prevents that,
but this is sometimes used with ghc --make which can get into that
situation.
