+Enhancement: Clear removed snapshots, index and pack files from the local cache
+
+Restic did not clear removed snapshots from the cache after the `forget` 
+operation; only indexes and pack files were removed automatically.  
+Restic now automatically clears removed indexes, packs and snapshots from the
+local cache.
