prune: Abort if any used blobs are missing 

The previous check only approximately verified whether all required
blobs were found. However, after forgetting a few snapshots the
repository contains lots of unused blobs whose number can be sufficient
to make up for missing packs.

When coupled with a malfunctioning backend that temporarily returns broken
data this could cause restic to regard the corresponding packs as
invalid and thereby delete data that's still in use. This change lets
restic play it safe and refuse to delete anything if data is missing.
