It's not ideal as the hash is now calculated twice, but it simplifies
such a large porition of the code as I can put proper asserts to make
sure all Files in the NotesFolderFS always have a valid GitHash.
This greatly simplifies the entire data flow. Though, it comes at the
risk of introducing bugs, but I think it's worth it.
Plus, it makes everything far far more testable.
The repoFolder can no longer ever be renamed. If it needs to be, then
the GitJournalRepo object, must be reconstructed. This simplifies the
entire code base enourmously, as I can mark tons of variables as 'final'
and I don't need to remember to reinitialize complex dependencies when
the repoPath changes.
Earlier one could never change a note type, and therefore its extension.
Now you can rename a note's filename to whatever and accordingly the
editor will change.
A warning message is shown when changing the file type.

This is probably the largest commit that I have ever made. From now on -
every File always has an mtime and ctime which is fetched from git.
Notes can optionally override that time by providing yaml metadata.
Additionally the 'filePath' and 'folderPath' is now relative to the
repoPath instead of being the full path.
This will slow down GitJournal like crazy as all the mtimes and ctime
still need to be cached. For my test repo it takes about 23 seconds for
GitJournal to become responsive.
Instead there is a new type called 'UnopenedFile'. This was part of my
effort to not have everything inside the 'Note' class and to make it a
bit more immutable.
But, wow, this took a very long time. The 'Note' class seems to be very
deeply integrated everywhere.
This makes us one step closer to making the Note class immutable which
will help GitJournal's overall architecture a lot. Plus it makes me one
step closer to having proper web support.
Also simplify the loading logic. This makes it much easier to
understand.
With this, I can now slowly migrate the interface of a NotesFolder to be
based on Files instead of Notes.
