make sync update adjusted branch to hide/unhide
This completes initial support for --hide-missing, although the
assistant still needs to be updated and it perhaps needs to be sped up,
and maybe there needs to be a way for git-annex get to operate on
missing files. Opened some more todos for those things.

While `git annex sync` supports branches set up by `git annex adjust
--hide-missing`, the assisitant does not yet.
This would invole:
* The assistant also needs to scan the original branch when looking for
files to download.
* The assistant ought to update the adjusted branch at some point after
downloads, but it's not clear when. Perhaps this will need to be deferred
until it can be done more cheaply, so it can do it after every file.
