Sped back up fsck, copy --from etc
All commands that often have to read a lot of information from the git-annex branch should now be nearly as fast as before the branch was introduced. Before fsck was taking approximatly 3 hours, now it's running in 8 minutes. The code is very nasty. It should be rewritten to read the header line from git cat-file, and then read the specified number of bytes of content.
