avoid using STM while the MVar is held
I thought this might be a lock conflict that explains the deadlock when
built with -threaded, but it seems not.. it still locks! It even locks
without the committer thread.
Indeed, it locks when running "git annex add"! -threaded is exposing some
other problem.
Still, this seems conceptually cleaner and did not add any inneficiencies.
Also added some high-level documentation about the threads used.
