assistant: Be smarter about avoiding unncessary transfers.
Just before starting a transfer, do one last check that it's still preferred content. I was just doing this for uploads, as part of the smarter flood filling bug, but realized it's also possible for a download that was preferred content to change to not be before the download begins, so check that too.

1. Ensure that locally paired computers have a lower cost than network
transfer remotes.
2. When queuing uploads, queue transfers to the lowest cost remotes first.

3. Just before starting a transfer, re-check if the transfer is still wanted.

Now, unnecessary transfers to tranfer repos are avoided if it can send
the file locally instead.
