[pbs-devel] [PATCH proxmox-backup] Revert "fix #5710: api: backup: stat known chunks on backup finish"

[Christian Ebner <c.ebner@proxmox.com>]

Commit da11d226 ("fix #5710: api: backup: stat known chunks on backup
finish") introduced a seemingly cheap server side check to verify
existence of known chunks in the chunk store by stating. This check
however does not scale for large backup snapshots which might contain
millions of known chunks, as reported in the community forum [0].
Revert the changes for now instead of making this opt-in/opt-out, a
more general approach has to be thought out to mark backup snapshots
which fail verification.
