borg1 needed this due to its transactional / rollback behaviour:
if there was uncommitted stuff in the repo, next repo opening automatically
rolled back to last commit. thus we needed checkpoint archives to reference
chunks and commit the repo.
borg2 does not do that anymore, unused chunks are only removed when the
user invokes borg compact.
thus, if a borg create gets interrupted, the user can just run borg create
again and it will find some chunks are already in the repo, making progress
even if borg create gets frequently interrupted.
