Since the File is abstracted away in a custom type, 2 more possibilities
come to mind:
pub struct BackupLockGuard(Option<File>);
and cfg(test) would just use `None`
or turn the File into our `Fd` type from the proxmox crate and use
`Fd::from_raw_fd(-1)` when no lock is used
That way we don't even need the trait
