When looking up a blob in the master index, with several
indexes present in the master index, a significant amount of time
is spent generating errors for each failed lookup. However, these
errors are often used to check if a blob is present, but the contents
are not inspected making the overhead of the error not useful.
Instead, change Index.Lookup (and Index.LookupSize) to instead return
a boolean denoting if the blob was found instead of an error. Also change
all the calls to these functions to handle the new function signature.
