Make an S3 listing the server cuts short an error (closes #297)

The SDK paginator takes a listing page marked truncated but carrying no
continuation token for the last page and stops without an error. A
server answering V2 listings V1-style sends such pages, so ListObjects
and ListObjectsStream returned the first page as the whole listing, and
prune treated the blobs of the snapshots on later pages as unreferenced.
Both now fetch each page through nextListPage, which returns
ErrNoContinuationToken for such a page; prune, snapshot list and remote
nuke already handle a listing error.

The test serves a fixed reply from a stub server, since gofakes3 always
sends the token.

-  ([issue #295](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/vaultik/issues/295)). A stray
-  file such as `.DS_Store` was reported as an orphaned blob and the
-  report advised running `prune`, which skips such a file and deleted
