A Hetzner Storage Box drops an SFTP connection that carried a lot of data
and then stayed quiet for a few minutes; files_external keeps using the dead
client, on which every file looks missing. StorageBackend now checks the
connection after a minute without requests, and replaces a connection that
is dead after a failed request (once per request; put, move and delete are
not repeated). SftpReadStream closes a connection it left in an unknown state.
The verify cache refresh took more than 6 minutes on PostgreSQL for 27,547
packs, one autocommitted insert per pack: putMany()/replaceAll() write in one
transaction. After a verify the cache holds the index files as they are, so a
blob in two packs stays cached for both.
