This will speed up the common case where a Key is deserialized from disk, but is then serialized to build eg, the path to the annex object. Previously attempted in 4536c93b and reverted in 96aba8ef. The problems mentioned in the latter commit are addressed now: Read/Show of KeyData is backwards-compatible with Read/Show of Key from before this change, so Types.Distribution will keep working. The Eq instance is fixed. Also, Key has smart constructors, avoiding needing to remember to update the cached serialization. Used git-annex benchmark: find is 7% faster whereis is 3% faster get when all files are already present is 5% faster Generally, the benchmarks are running 0.1 seconds faster per 2000 files, on a ram disk in my laptop.
