Enhancement: restore: suppress lchown errors when not running as root
Like "cp" and "rsync" do, restic now only reports errors for changing
the ownership of files during restore if it is run as root, on non-Windows
operating systems. On Windows, the error is reported as usual.

Enhancement: Reject files/dirs by name first
The current scanner/archiver code had an architectural limitation: it always
ran the `lstat()` system call on all files and directories before a decision to
include/exclude the file/dir was made. This lead to a lot of unnecessary system
calls for items that could have been rejected by their name or path only.
We've changed the archiver/scanner implementation so that it now first rejects
by name/path, and only runs the system call on the remaining items. This
reduces the number of `lstat()` system calls a lot (depending on the exclude
settings).

Bugfix: Remove truncated files from cache
When a file in the local cache is truncated, and restic tries to access data
beyond the end of the (cached) file, it used to return an error "EOF". This is
now fixed, such truncated files are removed and the data is fetched directly
from the backend.

Enhancement: Add directory filter to ls command
The ls command can now be filtered by directories, so that only files in the
given directories will be shown. If the --recursive flag is specified, then
ls will traverse subfolders and list their files as well.
It used to be possible to specify multiple snapshots, but that has been
replaced by only one snapshot and the possibility of specifying multiple
directories.
Specifying directories constrains the walk, which can significantly speed up
the listing.

Enhancement: Use `--host` everywhere
We now use the flag `--host` for all commands which need a host name, using
`--hostname` (e.g. for `restic backup`) still works, but will print a
deprecation warning. Also, add the short option `-H` where possible.

Bugfix: Do not return an error when the scanner is faster than backup
When restic makes a backup, there's a background task called "scanner" which
collects information on how many files and directories are to be saved, in
order to display progress information to the user. When the backup finishes
faster than the scanner, it is aborted because the result is not needed any
more. This logic contained a bug, where quitting the scanner process was
treated as an error, and caused restic to print an unhelpful error message
("context canceled").

Enhancement: Display size of cache directories
The `cache` command now by default shows the size of the individual cache
directories. It can be disabled with `--no-size`.

Enhancement: Improve the `find` command
We've updated the `find` command to support multiple patterns.
`restic find` is now able to list the snapshots containing a specific tree
or blob, or even the snapshots that contain blobs belonging to a given pack.
A list of IDs can be given, as long as they all have the same type.
The command `find` can also display the pack IDs the blobs belong to, if
the `--show-pack-id` flag is provided.

Enhancement: Display reason why forget keeps snapshots
We've added a column to the list of snapshots `forget` keeps which details the
reasons to keep a particuliar snapshot. This makes debugging policies for
forget much easier. Please remember to always try things out with `--dry-run`!

Enhancement: Accept glob in paths loaded via --files-from
Before that, behaviour was different if paths were appended to command line or
from a file, because wild card characters were expanded by shell if appended to
command line, but not expanded if loaded from file.

Enhancement: Vendor dependencies with Go 1.11 Modules
Until now, we've used `dep` for managing dependencies, we've now switch to
using Go modules. For users this does not change much, only if you want to
compile restic without downloading anything with Go 1.11, then you need to run:
`go build -mod=vendor build.go`

Enhancement: Add new command `self-update`
We have added a new command called `self-update` which downloads the
latest released version of restic from GitHub and replaces the current
binary with it. It does not rely on any external program (so it'll work
everywhere), but still verifies the GPG signature using the embedded GPG
public key.
By default, the `self-update` command is hidden behind the `selfupdate`
built tag, which is only set when restic is built using `build.go` (including
official releases). The reason for this is that downstream distributions will
then not include the command by default, so users are encouraged to use the
platform-specific distribution mechanism.

Enhancement: ls: Add JSON output support for restic ls cmd
We've implemented listing files in the repository with JSON as output, just
pass `--json` as an option to `restic ls`. This makes the output of the command
machine readable.
