Sometimes we don't have the guarantee that a particular seed index is always valid. For example if a seed index is calculated and used in two different occasions, it might happen that in the meantime some of the seed files got corrupted or that they simply changed (if the seed is a writable location). One workaroud is to manually launch `verify-index` and then regenerate the index if that check fails. However this involves additional steps and is potentially slower because we need to verify the entire seed before running the `extract` command. Instead with the new option "--regenerate-invalid-seeds", Desync will automatically regenerate the seed index if the validation step fails.

This test usually worked because "blob2.caibx" was considered before "blob2_corrupted.cabix". However this test was expecting to use "blob1.caibx", but that was not the case because in `readSeedDirs()` the index file is skipped if it is what we have set in input. Instead, we add it explicitly to force "blob1.caibx" as a seed. Signed-off-by: Ludovico de Nittis <ludovico.denittis@collabora.com>

I also added the commit Add the correct seed in the extract test, because I noticed that from time to time that test was failing. It can be moved to its own PR if you prefer. |

Sometimes we don't have the guarantee that a particular seed index is
always valid.

occasions, it might happen that in the meantime some of the seed files

location).
One workaroud is to manually launch
verify-indexand then regeneratethe index if that check fails. However this involves additional steps
and is potentially slower because we need to verify the entire seed
before running the
extractcommand.Instead with the new option "--regenerate-invalid-seeds", Desync will
automatically regenerate the seed index if the validation step fails.
