benchmarked numcopies .gitattributes in preferred content
Checking .gitattributes adds a full minute to a git annex find looking for
files that don't have enough copies. 2:25 increasts to 3:27. I feel this is
too much of a slowdown to justify making it the default. So, exposed two
versions of the preferred content expression, a slow one and a fast but
approximate one.
I'm using the approximate one in the default preferred content expressions
to avoid slowing down the assistant.
