This removes a bit of complexity, and should make things faster
(avoids tokenizing Params string), and probably involve less garbage
collection.
In a few places, it was useful to use Params to avoid needing a list,
but that is easily avoided.
Problems noticed while doing this conversion:
* Some uses of Params "oneword" which was entirely unnecessary
overhead.
* A few places that built up a list of parameters with ++
and then used Params to split it!
Test suite passes.

in version 5.20150406.
git-checkignore refuses to work if any pathspec options are set. Urgh.
I audited the rest of git, and no other commands used by git-annex have
such limitations. Indeed, AFAICS, *all* other commands support
--literal-pathspecs. So, worked around this where git-checkignore is
called.

Requires git 1.8.4 or newer. When it's installed, a background
git check-ignore process is run, and used to efficiently check ignores
whenever a new file is added.
Thanks to Adam Spiers, for getting the necessary support into git for this.
A complication is what to do about files that are gitignored but have
been checked into git anyway. git commands assume the ignore has been
overridden in this case, and not need any more overriding to commit a
changed version.
However, for the assistant to do the same, it would have to run git ls-files
to check if the ignored file is in git. This is somewhat expensive. Or it
could use the running git-cat-file process to query the file that way,
but that requires transferring the whole file content over a pipe, so it
can be quite expensive too, for files that are not git-annex
symlinks.
Now imagine if the user knows that a file or directory tree will be getting
frequent changes, and doesn't want the assistant to sync it, so gitignores
it. The assistant could overload the system with repeated ls-files checks!
So, I've decided that the assistant will not automatically commit changes
to files that are gitignored. This is a tradeoff. Hopefully it won't be a
problem to adjust .gitignore settings to not ignore files you want the
assistant to autocommit, or to manually git annex add files that are listed
in .gitignore.
(This could be revisited if git-annex gets access to an interface to check
the content of the index w/o forking a git command. This could be libgit2,
or perhaps a separate git cat-file --batch-check process, so it wouldn't
need to ship over the whole file content.)
