Make a special remote using adb to send file to an android device.
While there is an android port, a special remote will suffice for many use
cases, and may work better overall.
It should support exporttree=yes, since most use cases involve exporting a
tree of files and consuming them on the android device.
Use adb push, adb pull, and use adb shell for checkpresent and remove.
Ought to implement [[import tree]] at the same time, so that changes made
to files on the android device can be imported back into the git
repository.
And, [[export preferred content]] would be a useful feature for
excluding some files from a tree exported to android.
----
initremote will need to store the uuid of the remote in it, to avoid
operating on the wrong device.
