Sending data through a channel at very high frequency is extremely
inefficient. Thus use simple callbacks instead of channels.

Use runtime.GOMAXPROCS(0) as worker count for CPU-bound tasks,
repo.Connections() for IO-bound task and a combination if a task can be
both. Streaming packs is treated as IO-bound as adding more worker
cannot provide a speedup.
Typical IO-bound tasks are download / uploading / deleting files.
Decoding / Encoding / Verifying are usually CPU-bound. Several tasks are
a combination of both, e.g. for combined download and decode functions.
In the latter case add both limits together. As the backends have their
own concurrency limits restic still won't download more than
repo.Connections() files in parallel, but the additional workers can
decode already downloaded data in parallel.
As MergeFinalIndex and index uploads can occur concurrently, it is
necessary for MergeFinalIndex to check whether the IDs for an index were
already set before merging it. Otherwise, we'd loose the ID of an index
which is set _after_ uploading it.
This removes RunWorkers, which had become mere overhead by successive
refactors. It also ensures that each former user of that function
returns any context error that occurs, so failure to complete an
operation is always reported as an error.
A compressed index is only about one third the size of an uncompressed
one. Thus increase the number of entries in an index to avoid cluttering
the repository with small indexes.
- The SaveBlob method now checks for duplicates.
- Moves handling of pending blobs to MasterIndex.
-> also cleans up pending index entries when they are saved in the index
-> when using SaveBlob no need to care about index any longer
- Always check for full index and save it when storing packs.
-> removes the need of an index uploader
-> also removes the verbose "uploaded intermediate index" messages
- The Flush method now also saves the index
- Fix race condition when checking and saving full/non-finalized indexes
The logging in these functions double the time they take to execute.
However, it is only really useful on failures, which are better
reported by the calling functions.

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.
