[pbs-devel] [PATCH proxmox-backup] pull: properly skip missing snapshots

Code wise it looks good to me, and tested fine.
I am not sure though if there isn't a slight TOCTOU issue?
if the snapshot is deleted between the exist and verify_state check?
(not sure if there's a lock anyway here, couldn't tell from the surrounding code)

in that case we could maybe check err for ENOENT (if that's returned?) or returning
a custom Error type that includes that information

aside from that, consider this
