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.
