#596: Fix special file detection erroring when broken symlinks are encountered.
#597, #598: Fix regression in which "check" action errored on certain systems ("Cannot determine
Borg repository ID").
#357: Add "break-lock" action for removing any repository and cache locks leftover from Borg
aborting.
#360: To prevent Borg hangs, unconditionally delete stale named pipes before dumping databases.
#587: When database hooks are enabled, auto-exclude special files from a "create" action to
prevent Borg from hanging. You can override/prevent this behavior by explicitly setting the
"read_special" option to true.
#587: Warn when ignoring a configured "read_special" value of false, as true is needed when
database hooks are enabled.
#589: Update sample systemd service file to allow system "idle" (e.g. a video monitor turning
off) while borgmatic is running.
#590: Fix for potential data loss (data not getting backed up) when the "patterns_from" option
was used with "source_directories" (or the "~/.borgmatic" path existed, which got injected into
"source_directories" implicitly). The fix is for borgmatic to convert "source_directories" into
patterns whenever "patterns_from" is used, working around a Borg bug: https://github.com/borgbackup/borg/issues/6994
#590: In "borgmatic create --list" output, display which files get excluded from the backup due
to patterns or excludes.
