That seemed to break building on windows, before it starts building
git-annex at all, it tried to install ghc and something blew up:

Hopefully a newer ghc version or updated stackage version will fix this
at some point, in the meantime revert it.

remove --backend from global options
--backend is no longer a global option, and is only accepted by commands
that actually need it.
Three commands that used to support backend but don't any longer are
watch, webapp, and assistant. It would be possible to make them support it,
but I doubt anyone used the option with these. And in the case of webapp
and assistant, the option was handled inconsistently, only taking affect
when the command is run with an existing git-annex repo, not when it
creates a new one.
Also, renamed GlobalOption etc to AnnexOption. Because there are many
options of this type that are not actually global (any more) and get
added to commands that need them.

Recent commit got amended accidentially to include this typo. Argh. It
was fine, then I tweakd the commit message and accidentially staged this
breakage.

add rent optimisation inhibitor
As outlined in my blog post, I object to Microsoft training their Copilot
model on my code, and believe it likely violates my copyright.

While I never push git-annex to Github, other users choose to. And since
Microsoft is now selling access to Copilot to anyone, this situation is
escalating.

fix overwrite race with small file that got large
When adding a small file, it does not get locked down, so can be modified
after git-annex checks that it's small. The use of queued git add made the
race window nice and wide too.
Fixed by checking if the file has changed, and by not using git add.
Instead, have to recapitulate git add's handling of things like symlinks
and executable files.

avoid writing same symlink twice in a row
Oddly, the second write did not cause it to lose the mtime inherited
from the file being added, although the mtime was not provided to that
write but only to the first. I don't quite know why that worked before!

fixed overwrite race with git-annex fix
Similar to git-annex add, git-annex fix queued git add, so if a file
got modified before git add ran, the wrong content would be staged,
perhaps a large file content.

fix overwrite race with git-annex add of annex symlink
In the unlikely case where git-annex add is run on an annex symlink that
is not already added, and while it's processing it, the annex symlink is
overwritten with something else, avoid git-annex overwriting that with
the symlink again.

fix add overwrite race with git-annex add to annex
This is not a complete fix for all such races, only the one where a
large file gets changed while adding and gets added to git rather than
to the annex.
addLink needs to go away, any caller of it is probably subject to the
same kind of race. (Also, addLink itself fails to check gitignore when
symlinks are not supported.)
ingestAdd no longer checks gitignore. (It didn't check it consistently
before either, since there were cases where it did not run git add!)
When git-annex import calls it, it's already checked gitignore itself
earlier. When git-annex add calls it, it's usually on files found
by withFilesNotInGit, which handles checking ignores.
There was one other case, when git-annex add --batch calls it. In that
case, old git-annex behaved rather badly, it would seem to add the file,
but git add would later fail, leaving the file as an unstaged annex symlink.
That behavior has also been fixed.
