Fix bug in handling of annex.largefiles that use largerthan/smallerthan.
When adding a modified file, it incorrectly used the file size of the old
version of the file, not the current size.
That was the only largefiles limit that didn't directly look at the file on
disk already. Added a new type to keep straight the two different ways such
a limit can be matched. I kind of wanted to extend MatchingFile or FileInfo
to indicate that the matcher is supposed to operate on files from disk or
annex, but it turned out to be too complex to implement it that way.
This also changes the LimitAnnexFiles case when lookupFileKey does not find
a key. It used to fall back to statting the file, now it always returns
False. I doubt the old code could really get to that point, but if it
somehow does, it's better for preferred content matching to be consistent.
The filtering is fairly efficient as far as building the trees goes,
since it reuses adjustTree. But it still needs to traverse the whole
tree, and look up the keys used by every file.
The tree that gets recorded to export.log is the filtered tree.
This way resumes of interrupted sync to an export uses it without
needing to recalculate it. And, a change to the preferred content
settings of the remote will result in a different tree, so the export
will be updated accordingly.
The original tree is still used in the remote tracking branch.
That branch represents the special remote as a git remote, and if it
were a normal git remote, the tree in its head would not be affected by
preferred content.
Only when the preferred content expression includes them will a parse
failure due to them needing keys result in the preferred content
expression not parsing in keyless mode.
This will let import try to match preferred content expressions before
downloading the content and generating its key.
If an expression needs a key, it preferredContentParser with
preferredContentKeylessTokens will fail to parse it.
standard and groupwanted are not in preferredContentKeylessTokens
because they may refer to an expression that refers to a key.
That needs further work to support them.
* Added mimeencoding= term to annex.largefiles expressions.
This is probably mostly useful to match non-text files with eg
"mimeencoding=binary"
* git-annex matchexpression: Added --mimeencoding option.
This does not change the overall license of the git-annex program, which
was already AGPL due to a number of sources files being AGPL already.
Legally speaking, I'm adding a new license under which these files are
now available; I already released their current contents under the GPL
license. Now they're dual licensed GPL and AGPL. However, I intend
for all my future changes to these files to only be released under the
AGPL license, and I won't be tracking the dual licensing status, so I'm
simply changing the license statement to say it's AGPL.
(In some cases, others wrote parts of the code of a file and released it
under the GPL; but in all cases I have contributed a significant portion
of the code in each file and it's that code that is getting the AGPL
license; the GPL license of other contributors allows combining with
AGPL code.)
* findref: Support file matching options: --include, --exclude,
--want-get, --want-drop, --largerthan, --smallerthan, --accessedwithin
* Commands supporting --branch now apply file matching options --include,
--exclude, --want-get, --want-drop to filenames from the branch.
Previously, combining --branch with those would fail to match anything.
* add, import, findref: Support --time-limit.

v6: When annex.largefiles is not configured for a file, running git add or
git commit, or otherwise using git to stage a file will add it to the annex
if the file was in the annex before, and to git otherwise. This is to avoid
accidental conversion.
Note that git-annex add's behavior has not changed, for reasons explained
in the added comment.
Performance: No added overhead when annex.largefiles is configured.
When not configured, there is an added call to catObjectMetaData,
which involves a round trip through git cat-file --batch.
However, the earlier catKeyFile primes the cache for it.

Needs ghc 7.6.1, so minimum base version increased slightly. All builds
are well above this version of ghc, and debian oldstable is as well.
Code that could use lambdacase can be found by running:
git grep -B 1 'case ' | less
and searching in less for "<-"

Added --securehash option to match files using a secure hash function, and
corresponding securehash preferred content expression.

ghc 8 added backtraces on uncaught errors. This is great, but git-annex was
using error in many places for a error message targeted at the user, in
some known problem case. A backtrace only confuses such a message, so omit it.
Notably, commands like git annex drop that failed due to eg, numcopies,
used to use error, so had a backtrace.

This fixes all instances of " \t" in the code base. Most common case
seems to be after a "where" line; probably vim copied the two space layout
of that line.
Done as a background task while listening to episode 2 of the Type Theory
podcast.
For example "standard or (include=otherdir/*)" or even "not standard"
Note that the implementation avoids any potential for loops (if a
standard preferred content expression itself mentioned standard).

Several places assumed this would not happen, and when the AssociatedFile
was Nothing, did nothing.
As part of this, preferred content checks pass the Key around.
Note that checkMatcher is sometimes now called with Just Key and Just File.
It currently constructs a FileMatcher, ignoring the Key. However, if it
constructed a FileKeyMatcher, which contained both, then it might be
possible to speed up parts of Limit, which currently call the somewhat
expensive lookupFileKey to get the Key.
I have not made this optimisation yet, because I am not sure if the key is
always the same. Will need some significant checking to satisfy myself
that's the case..
Checking .gitattributes adds a full minute to a git annex find looking for
files that don't have enough copies. 2:25 increasts to 3:27. I feel this is
too much of a slowdown to justify making it the default. So, exposed two
versions of the preferred content expression, a slow one and a fast but
approximate one.
I'm using the approximate one in the default preferred content expressions
to avoid slowing down the assistant.
* Add numcopiesneeded preferred content expression.
* Client, transfer, incremental backup, and archive repositories
now want to get content that does not yet have enough copies.
This means the asssistant will make copies of files that don't yet
meet the configured numcopies, even to places that would not normally want
the file.
For example, if numcopies is 4, and there are 2 client repos and
2 transfer repos, and 2 removable backup drives, the file will be sent
to both transfer repos in order to make 4 copies. Once a removable drive
get a copy of the file, it will be dropped from one transfer repo or the
other (but not both).
Another example, numcopies is 3 and there is a client that has a backup
removable drive and two small archive repos. Normally once one of the small
archives has a file, it will not be put into the other one. But, to satisfy
numcopies, the assistant will duplicate it into the other small archive
too, if the backup repo is not available to receive the file.
I notice that these examples are fairly unlikely setups .. the old behavior
was not too bad, but it's nice to finally have it really correct.
.. Almost. I have skipped checking the annex.numcopies .gitattributes
out of fear it will be too slow.
