Michael Eischer 8206cd19c8 backend/retry: don't trip circuit breaker if context is canceled
When the context used for a load operation is canceled, then the result
is always an error independent of whether the file could be retrieved
from the backend. Do not false positively trip the circuit breaker in
this case.

The old behavior was problematic when trying to lock a repository. When
`Lock.checkForOtherLocks` listed multiple lock files in parallel and one
of them fails to load, then all other loads were canceled. This
cancelation was remembered by the circuit breaker, such that locking
retries would fail.

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. The lock operation failed with error
`unable to create lock in backend: circuit breaker open for file <lock/1234567890>`
The error handling has been fixed to correctly retry locking the repository.
