New annex.largefiles setting, which configures which files `git annex add` and the assistant add to the annex.
I would have sort of liked to put this in .gitattributes, but it seems
it does not support multi-word attribute values. Also, making this a single
config setting makes it easy to only parse the expression once.
A natural next step would be to make the assistant `git add` files that
are not annex.largefiles. OTOH, I don't think `git annex add` should
`git add` such files, because git-annex command line tools are
not in the business of wrapping git command line tools.

webapp: Progess bar fixes for many types of special remotes.
There was confusion in different parts of the progress bar code about
whether an update contained the total number of bytes transferred, or the
number of bytes transferred since the last update. One way this bug
showed up was progress bars that seemed to stick at zero for a long time.
In order to fix it comprehensively, I add a new BytesProcessed data type,
that is explicitly a total quantity of bytes, not a delta.
Note that this doesn't necessarily fix every problem with progress bars.
Particularly, buffering can now cause progress bars to seem to run ahead
of transfers, reaching 100% when data is still being uploaded.

webapp: Fix a race that sometimes caused alerts or other notifications to be missed if they occurred while a page was loading.
When a page is loaded, the javascript requests an notification url, and
does long polling on the url to be informed of changes. But if a change
occured before the notification url was requested, it would not be notified
of that change, and so the page display would not update.
I fixed this by *always* updating the page display after it gets
the notification url. This is extra work, but the overhead is not noticable
in the other overhead of loading a page.
(A nicer way would be to somehow record the version of a page initially
loaded, and then compare it with the current version when getting the
notification url, and only force an update if it's changed. But getting
the "version" of the different parts of the page that use long polling
is difficult.)

poll vote (I haven't always well understood the differences between commandline operation & the assistant, so the differences would confuse me, and I found the command line more understandable & less scary. Now trying to learn to like & trust the assistant. :))

reorganize osx app, so it can be put in PATH
Move all the binaries and libraries under a bundle/ subdirectory;
so when it's in PATH only git-annex, runshell, and git-annex-webapp
will be available.
