### Please describe the problem.
When git-annex has not recently used a remote, there appears to be a race condition where sometimes it will fail with "git-annex: Cannot run git-annex-remote-!dne! -- Make sure it's in your PATH and is executable."

The 'git-annex copy test --to GA-rclone-CI' line prior to the 'testremote' invocation seems to warm caches and avoids having the bug trigger.

+AFAICS this can only affect `git annex testremote` and not other commands;
+to test behavior when the remote is not accessible, it uses
+mkUnavailable which substitutes "!dne!" for various values.
+
+In the case of an external special remote, this causes it to run
+git-annex-remote-!dne! which is intentially not in the PATH. So,
+testremote is testing the behavior when the external special remote
+program is missing.
+
+The bug is that in the remote warmup process it tries to run
+git-annex-remote-!dne! in order to query it for GETCOST, and this fails.
+
+It's not a race condition; it just fails the first time, and works
+the second time (since it has gotten the cost cached then).
