don't force use of conduit in withUrlOptionsPromptingCreds
Use curl for downloads from git remotes when annex.url-options and other
git configs are set.
If the url needs a password, curl will fail, and git credential will not be
used to prompt for it. But the user can set --netrc in url-options and
put the password in the netrc file.
This also means that url-options settings like -4 will take effect.
That was the case before commit 1883f7ef8f9f617c60832c7f0794b54515fc652d
forced conduit to be used.
avoid redundant prompt for http password in git-annex get that does autoinit
autoEnableSpecialRemotes runs a subprocess, and if the uuid for a git
remote has not been probed yet, that will do a http get that will prompt
for a password. And then the parent process will subsequently prompt
for a password when getting annexed files from the remote.
So the solution is for autoEnableSpecialRemotes to run remoteList before
the subprocess, which will probe for the uuid for the git remote in the
same process that will later be used to get annexed files.
But, Remote.Git imports Annex.Init, and Remote.List imports Remote.Git,
so Annex.Init cannot import Remote.List. Had to pass remoteList into
functions in Annex.Init to get around this dependency loop.
cache credentials in memory when doing http basic auth to a git remote
When accessing a git remote over http needs a git credential prompt for a
password, cache it for the lifetime of the git-annex process, rather than
repeatedly prompting.
The git-lfs special remote already caches the credential when discovering
the endpoint. And presumably commands like git pull do as well, since they
may download multiple urls from a remote.
The TMVar CredentialCache is read, so two concurrent calls to
getBasicAuthFromCredential will both prompt for a credential.
There would already be two concurrent password prompts in such a case,
and existing uses of `prompt` probably avoid it. Anyway, it's no worse
than before.
use getSymbolicLinkStatus not getFileStatus to avoid crash on broken symlink
Fix crash importing from a directory special remote that contains a broken
symlink.
The crash was in listImportableContentsM but some other places in
Remote.Directory also seemed like they could have the same problem.
Also audited for other places that have such a problem. Not all calls
to getFileStatus are bad, in some cases it's better to crash on something
unexpected. For example, `git-annex import path` when the path is a broken
symlink should crash, the same as when it does not exist. Many of the
getFileStatus calls are like that, particularly when they involve
.git/annex/objects which should never have a broken symlink in it.

optimise linker in linux standalone tarballs
Trick the linker into not doing unncessary work searching for optimised
libraries that are not present, by symlinking the directories where
optimised libs would be to the main lib dir.
This reduces the ENOENT of git-annex init by about 1/2. The linker always
finds the files where it looks first time now. I have not looked at what
the wall clock speedup might be, it's probably rather small.
If a x86-64-v5 comes to be, the list will need to be extended. And there
may be other directories used on some machines that I have missed. Not done
for arm64 yet, or any uncommon architectures.

move assistant and webapp build-depends into main build-depends
For some reason, cabal 3.4.1.0 builds w/o the assistant and webapp,
even when the flag is explicitly turned on. Moving the build-depends from
inside the if flag section to the main build-depends somehow fixes this.
Since the webapp build deps are thus always available, there is no reason
not to build the webapp when building the assistant. So, got rid of the
webapp build flag. Kept the assistant build flag for now, since building
without it does at least still speed up the build.
