doc: prune --max-unused unlimited will still repack metadata

Adding minor clarification to documentation of `prune --max-unused unlimited` to indicate metadata will still be repacked. The referenced PR indicates `max-repack-size` CAN limit metadata repacking.

Add repositoryFile2 option
...
The `init` and `copy` commands can now use `--repository-file2` flag and
the `$RESTIC_REPOSITORY_FILE2` environment variable.
This also fixes the conflict with the `--repository-file` and `--repo2`
flag.
Tests are added for the initSecondaryGlobalOpts function.
This adds a NOK function to the test helper functions. This NOK tests if
err is not nil, and otherwise fail the test.
With the NOK function a couple of sad paths are tested in the
initSecondaryGlobalOpts function.
In total the tests checks wether the following are passed correct:
- Password
- PasswordFile
- Repo
- RepositoryFile
The following situation must return an error to pass the test:
- no Repo or RepositoryFile defined
- Repo and RepositoryFile defined both

Add PGP fingerprint to 020_installation.rst
...
I like the idea of verifying the integrity of applications, I download from the internet. So I was very happy to see that restic does provide SHA256-checksums which are signed with the maintainers PGP key.
The only thing I miss: I could not find a direct way to download the used PGP key and verify the keys fingerprint.
Doing some searches, I found:
* https://github.com/restic/rest-server/issues/121
* https://restic.net/blog/2015-09-16/verifying-code-archive-integrity/
To help other restic users, I think you should add information about your PGP key/fingerprint to this installation doc, too. To save you some precious time, I created a draft, how this doc might be expanded, in this pull-request. You are free to accept it or change the text to your liking.
I copied the key/fingerprint text from: ``restic/restic/master/doc/090_participating.rst``
Thank you for your work in restic!

Refactor max-unused calculation, add unlimited
option
...
Add a callback to the PruneOptions struct which calculates the number of
bytes allowed to be unused after prune is done. This way, the logic is
closer to the option parsing code.
Also, add an explicit option `unlimited` for the use case when storage
does not matter but bandwidth and time do. Internally, this sets the
maximum number of unused bytes to MaxUint64.
Rework the documentation slightly so that no more "packs" are
mentioned and it talks about "files" instead.
Make it clear in the documentation that the percentage given to
`--max-unused` is relative to the whole repository size after pruning is
done. If specified, it must be below 100%, otherwise the repository
would contain 100% of unused data, which is pointless.
I had a hard time coming up with the correct formula to calculate the
maximum number of unused bytes based on the number of used bytes. For a
fraction `p` (0 ≤ p < 1), a repo with `u` bytes used, and the number of
unused bytes `x` the following holds:
x ≤ p * (u+x)
⇔ x ≤ p*u + p*x
⇔ x - p*x ≤ p*u
⇔ x * (1-p) ≤ p*u
⇔ x ≤ p/(1-p) * u

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.

Update usage strings to put flags before args
...
The standard UNIX-style ordering of command-line arguments places
optional flags before other positional arguments. All of restic's
commands support this ordering, but some of the usage strings showed the
flags after the positional arguments (which restic also parses just
fine). This change updates the doc strings to reflect the standard
ordering.
Because the `restic help` command comes directly from Cobra, there does
not appear to be a way to update the argument ordering in its usage
string, so it maintains the non-standard ordering (positional arguments
before optional flags).

backup: Return exit status code 3 when failing to read source data

The backup command used to return a zero exit code as long as a snapshot
could be created successfully, even if some of the source files could not
be read (in which case the snapshot would contain the rest of the files).
This made it hard for automation/scripts to detect failures/incomplete
backups by looking at the exit code. Restic now returns the following exit
codes for the backup command:
- 0 when the command was successful
- 1 when there was a fatal error (no snapshot created)
- 3 when some source data could not be read (incomplete snapshot created)

doc: Warn about compatibility issues with CIFS and restic
...
On Linux CIFS (SMB) seems to be incompatible with the async preemption
implementation of Go 1.14. CIFS seems not to restart syscalls (open,
read, chmod, readdir, ...) as expected by Go, which sets SA_RESTART for
its signal handler to have syscalls restarted automatically. This leads
to Go passing up lots of EINTR return codes to restic.
See https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/2659 for a detailed explanation.

docs: switch to gopher favicon
...
The favicon on restic.readthedocs.io still contained the old
superman-style logo.
This changes it to the 32x32 gopher icon also used on https://forum.restic.net/ ,
just converted to .ico using Gimp.
Tested by building the documentation and opening index.html in Chrome.
The new favicon looks fine.

b2 bucket names need to be unique
...
Adds a small warning indicating that b2 bucket names need to be unique. It's an easy mistake to make, and it's surprising to get the following error if you're not accustomed to the way B2 works:
Fatal: create repository at b2:postgres failed: NewBucket: b2_create_bucket: 400: Bucket name is already in use

nothing has been deleted.
I changed the heading markup to follow the convention used in Python’s

at the top of every file.

gs: allow backend creation without storage.buckets.get
...
If the service account used with restic does not have the
storage.buckets.get permission (in the "Storage Admin" role), Create
cannot use Get to determine if the bucket is accessible.
Rather than always trying to create the bucket on Get error, gracefully
fall back to assuming the bucket is accessible. If it is, restic init
will complete successfully. If it is not, it will fail on a later call.
Here is what init looks like now in different cases.
Service account without "Storage Admin":
Bucket exists and is accessible (this is the case that didn't work
before):
$ ./restic init -r gs:this-bucket-does-exist:/
enter password for new backend:
enter password again:
created restic backend c02e2edb67 at gs:this-bucket-does-exist:/
Please note that knowledge of your password is required to access
the repository. Losing your password means that your data is
irrecoverably lost.
Bucket exists but is not accessible:
$ ./restic init -r gs:this-bucket-does-exist:/
enter password for new backend:
enter password again:
create key in backend at gs:this-bucket-does-exist:/ failed:
service.Objects.Insert: googleapi: Error 403:
my-service-account@myproject.iam.gserviceaccount.com does not have
storage.objects.create access to object this-bucket-exists/keys/0fa714e695c8ecd58cb467cdeb04d36f3b710f883496a90f23cae0315daf0b93., forbidden
Bucket does not exist:
$ ./restic init -r gs:this-bucket-does-not-exist:/
create backend at gs:this-bucket-does-not-exist:/ failed:
service.Buckets.Insert: googleapi: Error 403:
my-service-account@myproject.iam.gserviceaccount.com does not have storage.buckets.create access to bucket this-bucket-does-not-exist., forbidden
Service account with "Storage Admin":
Bucket exists and is accessible: Same
Bucket exists but is not accessible: Same. Previously this would fail
when Create tried to create the bucket. Now it fails when trying to
create the keys.
Bucket does not exist:
$ ./restic init -r gs:this-bucket-does-not-exist:/
enter password for new backend:
enter password again:
created restic backend c3c48b481d at gs:this-bucket-does-not-exist:/
