A chunk is registered as pending (known, scanner-pending, packer pending-row) before it is packed. Under --skip-errors the scanner skipped a file on any processing error, including a failure inside addChunkToPacker (packing, database, encryption, upload). The pending chunk then stayed queued and a later blob finalize inserted it into the chunks table with no blob_chunks row, so a snapshot could complete holding a file whose chunk is in no blob and cannot be restored.
Errors from addChunkToPacker are now marked and abort the run regardless of --skip-errors; only open and read errors are skipped. The bookkeeping order is unchanged. Flag help and comments now say only unreadable files are skipped.
