Bugfix: Fix rare failures to retry locking a repository
Restic 0.17.0 could in rare cases fail to retry locking a repository if one of
the lock files failed to load, resulting in the error:
```
unable to create lock in backend: circuit breaker open for file <lock/1234567890>
```
This issue has been addressed. The error handling now properly retries the
locking operation. In addition, restic waits a few seconds between locking
retries to increase chances of successful locking.
