The slowdown is not going to be large in typical small-ish repos.
And it does not seem to matter if the assistant reacts a little bit slower
in situations involving the expensive scan, since:
a) Those situations typically involve getting back in sync after something
has changed on a remote, often after a disconnect of some duration.
So taking a few seconds more is not noticable.
b) If the scan finds things that it needs to do, it will start
blocking anyway after 10 transfers are queued (due to use of
queueTransferWhenSmall). So, only the speed of finding the first 10
transfers will be impacted by this change.

Users occasionally report this error firing, and I can't see why,
so include the rejected PairData in the error message.
This is safe even if it contains evil escape characters, because showing
it displays them in escaped form.

Probing for hard link support in the pid locking code is redundant since
git-annex init already probes that. But, it didn't seem worth threading
that data through; the pid locking code runs at most once per git-annex
process, and only on unusual filesystems. Optimising a single hard link
and unlink isn't worth it.
