As mentioned in issue [#1560](https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/1560#issuecomment-364689346)
this changes the signature for `backend.Save()`. It now takes a
parameter of interface type `RewindReader`, so that the backend
implementations or our `RetryBackend` middleware can reset the reader to
the beginning and then retry an upload operation.
The `RewindReader` interface also provides a `Length()` method, which is
used in the backend to get the size of the data to be saved. This
removes several ugly hacks we had to do to pull the size back out of the
`io.Reader` passed to `Save()` before. In the `s3` and `rest` backend
this is actively used.
Before, all backend implementations were required to return an error if
the file that is to be written already exists in the backend. For most
backends, that means making a request (e.g. via HTTP) and returning an
error when the file already exists.
This is not accurate, the file could have been created between the HTTP
request testing for it, and when writing starts. In addition, apart from
the `config` file in the repo, all other file names have pseudo-random
names with a very very low probability of a collision. And even if a
file name is written again, the way the restic repo is structured this
just means that the same content is placed there again. Which is not a
problem, just not very efficient.
So, this commit relaxes the requirement to return an error when the file
in the backend already exists, which allows reducing the number of API
requests and thereby the latency for remote backends.
List().
move comment regarding problematic List() backend api (it's s3's ListObjects
that has a problem, NOT swift's ObjectsWalk).
As per discussion in PR #1399.
