Review notes on the open pack stream: it stayed open while a backup run went on to upload
(e.g. the snapshot after reading the file list back), which SFTP cannot do on one connection.
Reading moves to PackReader, and Repository reaches the location through PackReaderGuard,
which closes the stream before every other request. A pack stream that cannot seek is read up
to the offset. Deep verify no longer reports an \Error during decoding as damage.
Restores and deep verifies requested every blob separately: a new file handle and a seek on
the location each time. They read the blobs of a snapshot in the order they were written, so
the stream of the pack read last now stays open and is read on; a jump backwards, to another
pack, or more than 8 MiB ahead opens the pack again at the offset, as before. On a Hetzner
Storage Box over SMB, restoring 86 MB in 202 files went from 0.78 MB/s to 4.2 MB/s.
