This removes code that is only used within a backend implementation from the backend package. The latter now only contains code that also has external users.
Ideally, code that uses a repository shouldn't directly interact with the underlying backend. Thus, move MemorizeList one layer up.

What does this PR change? What problem does it solve?
The restic package is currently a big bunch of partially related code. In particular, it contains backend, repository and data format specific code. This makes it tempting to create leaky abstractions that expose internals of the repository format which should rather be encapsulated.
This PR splits the backend code from the restic package to provide a cleaner separation. There is still a significant amount of code that (unnecessarily) reaches into the backend of a repository.
Was the change previously discussed in an issue or on the forum?
No.
