+Enhancement: Parallelize reading of snapshots
+
+Restic used to read snapshots sequentially. For repositories containing
+many snapshots this slowed down commands which have to read all snapshots.
+Now the reading of snapshots is parallelized. This speeds up for example
+`prune`, `backup` and other commands that search for snapshots with certain
+properties or which have to find the `latest` snapshot.
