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.
