Empty folders in backup and restore, a full disk stops a restore, progress in the Bin

- Record folders without files in the meta record of a snapshot and restore them (#27)
- Errors writing to the restore directory stop the restore, also with --salvage
- Resume: check the folder before skipping, clean temporaries in folders that are complete
- Clean only read-ahead folders of our own; refresh the lease on skipped files
- Drop tables a failed database restore created; keep --salvage from calling a restored database fresh
- Retry a pack that fails to open on the storage (SMB)
- Without cron, running backups take turns from the open page
- Bin: read in parts with a counter and progress bar, show read errors, refresh when a run ends

## [1.0.3] - Unreleased
### Fixed
- Empty folders are backed up and restored (#27), in `occ backup:restore`, `occ backup:restore:full`
and the restore page, where they are shown too. They come back from the first backup made with
this version; older restore points do not contain them. An older version of NG Backup can still
read new restore points, and then only leaves the empty folders out.
- A full disk during a restore no longer looks like a damaged backup. The restore now stops with a
message about the disk, also with `--salvage`, and does not point at `--salvage` any more. The same
goes for other trouble writing to the restore directory, such as permissions.
- A restore that goes on after a stop also removes the temporary files in folders where every file
is already in place, and checks that those folders are inside the restore directory before it
leaves their files alone.
- A restore only removes read-ahead folders of its own (`.ngb-restore-spool-` with 8 hex digits).
- A restore keeps its lock on the location during a long row of files that are already in place.
- A database restore that fails no longer leaves behind tables it created, which could stop the
installation of that app later. When only NG Backup's own settings cannot be put back after the
database was restored, `--salvage` no longer says the database is still the fresh one.
- A connection that breaks while opening a pack on the location (seen with SMB) is retried once and
is handled by `--salvage`, instead of stopping the restore with the error of the storage.
- Without a system cron, several running backups take turns while the page is open.
- The Bin tab shows how far it is while it reads the removed restore points, which can take a while.
It also shows when it cannot read a location, instead of an empty bin, and refreshes when a run
ends.
