Unused blobs are not a problem but rather expected to exist now that
prune by default does not remove every unused blob. However, the option
has caused questions from users whether a repository is damaged or not,
so just remove that option.
Note that the remaining code is left intact as it is still useful for
our test cases.
It wasn't clear that Google Cloud Storage and Google Drive are two different services and that one should use the rclone backend for the latter. This commit adds a note with this information.
After the `BlobSaver` job is submitted, the buffer can be released and
reused by another `FileSaver` even before `BlobSaver.Save` returns. That
FileSaver will the change `buf.Data` leading to wrong backup statistics.

Use runtime.GOMAXPROCS(0) as worker count for CPU-bound tasks,
repo.Connections() for IO-bound task and a combination if a task can be
both. Streaming packs is treated as IO-bound as adding more worker
cannot provide a speedup.
Typical IO-bound tasks are download / uploading / deleting files.
Decoding / Encoding / Verifying are usually CPU-bound. Several tasks are
a combination of both, e.g. for combined download and decode functions.
In the latter case add both limits together. As the backends have their
own concurrency limits restic still won't download more than
repo.Connections() files in parallel, but the additional workers can
decode already downloaded data in parallel.
Use only a single not completed pack file to keep the number of open and
active pack files low. The main change here is to defer hashing the pack
file to the upload step. This prevents the pack assembly step to become
a bottleneck as the only task is now to write data to the temporary pack
file.
The tests are cleaned up to no longer reimplement packer manager
functions.
