I think this branch is now enough to be useful. It adds the following:
If the `transient` plugin is loaded, `$srcdir/.ikiwiki/transient` is added
as an underlay.
as an underlay. I'm not sure whether this should be a plugin or core, so
I erred on the side of more plugins; I think it's "on the edge of the core",
like goto.
Pages with the default extension in the transient underlay are automatically
deleted if a page of the same name is created in the srcdir (or an underlay

`tag` enables `transient`, and if `tag_autocreate_commit` is set to 0

There is a regression test.
`autoindex` uses autofiles. It also enables `transient`, and if

autoindex ignores pages in the transient underlay when deciding whether

Not done yet:
New recent changes go in the transient underlay; I tested this manually.
`remove` can't remove transient pages: this turns out to be harder than
I'd hoped, because I don't want to introduce a vulnerability in the
non-regular-file detection...
Not done yet (in that branch, at least):
Transient tags that don't match any pages aren't deleted: I'm not sure
that that's a good idea anyway, though. Similarly, transient autoindexes
of directories that become empty aren't deleted.
* `remove` can't remove transient pages: this turns out to be harder than
I'd hoped, because I don't want to introduce a vulnerability in the
non-regular-file detection, so I'd rather defer that.
Recent changes and aggregated files could conceivably go in the transient
underlay too.

transient underlay too (they'll naturally migrate over time). I haven't
tested this yet, it's just a proof-of-concept.
