Fixes restic#719
If the option is passed, restic will wait the specified duration of time
and retry locking the repo every 10 seconds (or more often if the total
timeout is relatively small).
- Play nice with json output
- Reduce wait time in lock tests
- Rework timeout last attempt
- Reduce test wait time to 0.1s
- Use exponential back off for the retry lock
- Don't pass gopts to lockRepo functions
- Use global variable for retry sleep setup
- Exit retry lock on cancel
- Better wording for flag help
- Reorder debug statement
- Refactor tests
- Lower max sleep time to 1m
- Test that we cancel/timeout in time
- Use non blocking sleep function
- Refactor into minDuration func

The output is now
```
-v, --verbose be verbose (specify multiple times or a level using --verbose=n, max level/times is 2)
```
instead of
```
-v, --verbose n be verbose (specify multiple times or a level using --verbose=n, max level/times is 2)
```
The maximum for `--verbose=n` is n=2. Internally it is translated into a
scale from 0 to 3. However, the default (without verbose) is 1, thus the
verbosity level can only be increased two times.
The VSS support works for 32 and 64-bit windows, this includes a check that
the restic version matches the OS architecture as required by VSS. The backup
operation will fail the user has not sufficient permissions to use VSS.
Snapshotting volumes also covers mountpoints but skips UNC paths.
Cache locations were documented inconsistently in three places.
The backup docs mentioned PATH being used to find fusermount, which is
never run by restic backup. It now mentions ssh and rclone, which are
used by backends.
The notion of a "system-wide" environment variable makes no sense.
TMPDIR is now mentioned because it allows for optimization and may
have security implications.
Changes proposed in #2763:
- Adding `RESTIC_CACHE_DIR` environment variables (introduced in #2425 for Unix and #2607 for Mac, Win).
- Adding used system-wide environment variables with links to the corresponding section.
That site might not have supported https:// when those links were
originally added. It does now.
Also dropping the _spec.html_ ending of the url, there being a `<link
rel="canonical" ...>` tag suggesting that that no longer being the
preferred address.
This patch makes it more explicit what is meant by the CACHEDIR.TAG file.
It not only has to have this particular name, but also a specific content
(described at http://bford.info/cachedir/spec.html), which is not immediately
obvious to the user.
