Bugfix: Handle errors listing files in the backend
A user reported in the forum that restic completes a backup although a
concurrent `prune` operation was running. A few error messages were printed,
but the backup was attempted and completed successfully. No error code was
returned.
This should not happen: The repository is exclusively locked during `prune`, so
when `restic backup` is run in parallel, it should abort and return an error
code instead.
It was found that the bug was in the code introduced only recently, which
retries a List() operation on the backend should that fail. It is now corrected.
