Enhancement: Configurable progress reports for non-interactive terminals
The `backup`, `check` and `prune` commands never printed any progress
reports on non-interactive terminals. This behavior is now configurable
using the `RESTIC_PROGRESS_FPS` environment variable. Use for example a
value of `1` for an update per second or `0.01666` for an update per minute.
The `backup` command now also prints the current progress when restic
receives a `SIGUSR1` signal.
Setting the `RESTIC_PROGRESS_FPS` environment variable or sending a `SIGUSR1`
signal prints a status report even when `--quiet` was specified.

current progress will be written to the standard output so you can check up
on the status at will.
