New features:
- borg create --chunker-params ... to configure the chunker.
- borg create --chunker-params ... to configure the chunker, fixes #16
(attic #302, attic #300, and somehow also #41).
This can be used to reduce memory usage caused by chunk management overhead,
so borg does not create a huge chunks index/repo index and eats all your RAM
if you back up lots of data in huge files (like VM disk images).
See docs/misc/create_chunker-params.txt for more information.
- borg info now reports chunk counts in the chunk index.
- borg create --compression 0..9 to select zlib compression level, fixes #66
(attic #295).
- improve at-end error logging, always log exceptions and set exit_code=1
- LoggedIO: better error checks / exceptions / exception handling
Bug fixes:
- reduce memory usage, see --chunker-params, fixes #16.

- more compatible repository locking code (based on mkdir), maybe fixes #92
(attic #317, attic #201).

repo connections and "list <repo>", "delete <repo>", "prune"
