Treat download.state2 as optional for --resume so an existing backup directory without state can be validated and resumed from scratch.

See #1383 (comment) — auto-fallback to scratch download when download.state2 is missing is not safe (silent corruption risk: no way to know which local files are complete vs cut mid-stream). The acceptable fix is improving the error message to point at clickhouse-backup delete local <name>, not changing the behavior. Not merging this as-is.

better return here following error
local backup '<name>' exists but download.state2 is missing.
run `clickhouse-backup delete local <name>` and retry,
or investigate why the resumable state was lost.
