Compute the content hash only when head and tail match (closes #61)
check / check (push) Successful in 49s

A file of 10 MiB or more now gets only its 64 KiB head and tail in the
hash phase, so its content is read only when it can be a duplicate. A
new content phase after the update phase finds every group of records,
anywhere in the database, that share size, head and tail and include
one without a content hash. It checks every member with lstat and, when
at least two pass, reads those without a content hash through the
existing worker pool; a stale file does not count as a match. report
and trees leave out records without a content hash. The README, help
text and TODO entry describe the gate; the schema stays at version 1.

Lint suppressed: gosec on the file open in hashContentOnly, as in
hashSignature, and on one chmod in a test.
