[pbs-devel] [PATCH proxmox-backup v2] fix #4823: datastore: ignore vanished files when walking directory

[Gabriel Goller]

When walking through a datastore on a GC run, it can
happen that the snapshot is deleted, and then walked over.
For example:
- read dir entry for group
- walk entries (snapshots)
- snapshot X is removed/pruned
- walking reaches snapshot X, but ENOENT
Previously we bailed here, now we just ignore it.
Backups that are just created (and a atomic rename from
tmpdir happens, which might triggers a ENOENT error) are
not a problem here, the GC handles them separately.
