41f70f1f4f backend/sftp: Add sftp.args option 
Allow setting custom arguments for the `sftp` backend, by using the
`sftp.args` option. This is similar to the approach already implemented
in the `rclone` backend, to support new arguments without requiring
future code changes for each different SSH argument.

Closes #4241

a858ab254b Include inode in JSON output for find and ls 
This introduces the inode attribute to the JSON output emitted for nodes
in `ls` and matches in `find`. There doesn't seem to be any discernible
reason to omit the inode and it can be useful in scripting scenarios.

Add a global option --retry-lock 
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

732184a849 Correct maximum verbosity level in help message 
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.

14aa6f2a00 add --disable-scanner to backup command 
The scanner process has only cosmetic effect for the progress printer,
and can be disabled without impacting functionality when the user does
not need an estimate of completion.

In many cases the scanner process can provide beneficial priming of
the file system cache, so as general advice it should not be disabled.
However, tests have shown that backup of NFS and fuse based filesystems,
where stat(2) is relatively expensive, can be significantly faster
without the scanner.

2758d76b77 copy: replace --repo2 with --from-repo 
`init` and `copy` use `--repo2` with two different meaning which has
proven to be confusing for users. `--from-repo` now consistently marks a
source repository from which data is read. `--repo` is now always the
target/destination repository.

38c0531b52 doc: specify AWS Region via AWS_DEFAULT_REGION 
If no specific Region is mentioned in RESTIC_REPOSITORY, AWS defaults to
us-east-1. For this reason, users that follow the tutorial and create
their S3 bucket in any other region get the following error:

"Fatal: create repository at [...] client.BucketExists"

Explicitly specifying the AWS region name fixes the issue.

dbbeac7174 prune: Add unsafe option to recover from no free space 
The new option allows prune to operate with nearly no scratch space by only removing
no longer necessary pack files and first deleting the index before
rebuilding it. By first deleting the index it becomes safe to just
delete no longer necessary pack files. However, as a downside there's
now the risk that the repository becomes inaccessible if prune fails.

To recover from that problem a user might have to manually delete the
repository index and then run (a full) `rebuild-index` again.

9c1d49e312 Document "forget" security considerations and add references 
Removing data based on a policy when the attacker had the opportunity to
add data to your repository comes with some considerations. This is
added to the 060_forget.rst documentation.

That document is also updated to reflect that restic now considers
the current system time while running "forget".

References to the security considerations section are added:
- In `restic forget --help`
- In the threat model (design.rst)
- In the (030) setup section where an append-only setup is referenced

A reference is also to be added to the `rest-server` readme's
append-only paragraph (see my fork).

This commit also resolves a typo (amount->number for countable noun),
changes a password length recommendation into the metric that
actually matters when creating passwords (entropy) since I was editing
these doc files anyway, and updates the outdated copyright year in
`conf.py`.

Some wording in 060_forget (line 21..22) was changed to clarify what
"forget" and "prune" do, to try and avoid the apparent misconception
that "forget" does not remove any data.

2ee07ded2b filter: ability to use negative patterns 
This is quite similar to gitignore. If a pattern is suffixed by an
exclamation mark and match a file that was previously matched by a
regular pattern, the match is cancelled. Notably, this can be used
with `--exclude-file` to cancel the exclusion of some files.

Like for gitignore, once a directory is excluded, it is not possible
to include files inside the directory. For example, a user wanting to
only keep `*.c` in some directory should not use:

    ~/work
    !~/work/*.c

But:

    ~/work/*
    !~/work/*.c

I didn't write documentation or changelog entry. I would like to get
feedback if this is the right approach for excluding/including files
at will for backups. I use something like this as an exclude file to
backup my home:

    $HOME/**/*
    !$HOME/Documents
    !$HOME/code
    !$HOME/.emacs.d
    !$HOME/games
    # [...]
    node_modules
    *~
    *.o
    *.lo
    *.pyc
    # [...]
    $HOME/code/linux/*
    !$HOME/code/linux/.git
    # [...]

There are some limitations for this change:

 - Patterns are not mixed accross methods: patterns from file are
   handled first and if a file is excluded with this method, it's not
   possible to reinclude it with `--exclude !something`.

 - Patterns starting with `!` are now interpreted as a negative
   pattern. I don't think anyone was relying on that.

 - The whole list of patterns is walked for each match. We may
   optimize later by exiting early if we know no pattern is starting
   with `!`.
