Don't set a parent for --stdin backups
Loading any parent tree for these only wastes time and memory. Fixes #3641, where it was shown that the most recent tree will get picked. --parent is now implicitly ignored when --stdin is given.

Change: Backups from stdin no longer have a parent
|
||||
|
||||
Snapshots made with `restic backup --stdin` no longer have a parent snapshot.
|
||||
Since parent snapshots are only used to skip files in the scanning phase
|
||||
based on filename and timestamps, the parent snapshot of a `--stdin` snapshot
|
||||
was meaningless to begin with. Not setting a parent allows `restic backup`
|
||||
to skip some startup operations.
|
||||
|
||||
The `--parent` option is still available for `restic backup --stdin`,
|
||||
but is now ignored.
