Improve info command fault tolerance.
This improvement reduces the number of errors thrown; these errors will now be reported as a status for the stanza or repo as appropriate. Invalid option configurations are still thrown but all other errors are caught, formatted and reported. This was necessary for multiple repositories so that the command can complete gathering information from each repository and report the results rather than immediately aborting when an error occurs.

Two new error codes were introduced:
6 = requested backup not found
99 = other, which is used to indicate an error has occurred that requires more details to be provided

A new stanza name of "[invalid]" was created for instances where a stanza was not specified and no stanza can be found.

If there is only one repository configured the error will move up to the stanza level with the standard error formatting of 'error (message)' where the message will be "other" and the details of the error will be listed on the next line(s):

stanza: stanza1
    status: error (other)
            [CryptoError] unable to load info file '/var/lib/pgbackrest/repo/backup/stanza1/backup.info' or '/var/lib/pgbackrest/repo/backup/stanza1/backup.info.copy':
            CryptoError: cipher header invalid
            HINT: is or was the repo encrypted?
            FileMissingError: unable to open missing file '/var/lib/pgbackrest/repo/backup/stanza1/backup.info.copy' for read
            HINT: backup.info cannot be opened and is required to perform a backup.
            HINT: has a stanza-create been performed?
            HINT: use option --stanza if encryption settings are different for the stanza than the global
    cipher: aes-256-cbc

If a backup set is requested but is not found on any repo, a stanza-level status error of 'requested backup not found' is reported when there are no other errors:

pgbackrest info --stanza=demo --set=bogus
stanza: demo
    status: error (requested backup not found)
    cipher: mixed
        repo1: aes-256-cbc
        repo2: none

If there are multiple repositories configured and a single repo is in error but the other repos are ok or have a different error:

pgbackrest info --stanza=demo --set=20210322-171211F
stanza: demo
    status: mixed
        repo1: error
               [CryptoError] unable to load info file '/var/lib/pgbackrest/repo/backup/stanza1/backup.info' or '/var/lib/pgbackrest/repo/backup/stanza1/backup.info.copy':
               CryptoError: cipher header invalid
               HINT: is or was the repo encrypted?
               FileMissingError: unable to open missing file '/var/lib/pgbackrest/repo/backup/stanza1/backup.info.copy' for read
               HINT: backup.info cannot be opened and is required to perform a backup.
               HINT: has a stanza-create been performed?
               HINT: use option --stanza if encryption settings are different for the stanza than the global
        repo2: ok
    cipher: mixed
        repo1: aes-256-cbc
        repo2: none

    db (current)
        wal archive min/max (12): 000000010000000000000001/000000010000000000000003

            database size: 23.4MB, database backup size: 23.4MB
            repo2: backup set size: 2.8MB, backup size: 2.8MB
            database list: postgres (13359)

Json output will include the repository information and any error information. If no stanzas are found, then [invalid] will be set as the name:

[
   {
       "archive":[],
       "backup":[],
       "cipher":"none",
       "db":[],
       "name":"[invalid]",
       "repo":[
           {
               "cipher":"none",
               "key":1,
               "status":{
                   "code":99,
                   "message":"[PathOpenError] unable to list file info for path '/var/lib/pgbackrest/repo2/backup': [13] Permission denied"
               }
           }
       ],
       "status":{
           "code":99,
           "lock":{"backup":{"held":false}},
           "message":"other"
           }
   }
]
