> When using AzurePersistence as backend, a TarWriter can end up in an inconsistent state.
> The root cause of this inconsistent state is the following sequence:
>  * TarFiles writes a new segment
>  * The current tar archive is now too large and a new tar archive needs to be created
>  * However, first the TarWriter associated to the current archive need to be closed
>  * In the TarWriter#close() method, first the {{closed}} flag is set, then it proceeds to close the archive by writing the binary references file and the graph file.
>  * The write to Azure storage fails because of a timeout: "The client could not finish the operation within specified maximum execution timeout"
>  * The TarWriter is now closed (because the {{closed}} flag is already set), but because the exception is basically ignored by FileStore#tryFlush(), the TarWriter is kept in use and fails all read and write operations from that point forward. The read operation failures cause calling code to interpret the exception as a SNFE.
