Due to improvements in the efficiency of portmaster's method of killing
background processes when trap'ing, plus the declining quality of ports
generally, when the background process that reads the distinfo files
encountered a fatal error (which they have been doing more frequently of
late), the resulting call to fail() would end up neatly killing all of
that parent's background fetch processes as well.

Fix that problem by not making the disruption in read_distinfos() fatal
unless it's being used for --clean-distfiles. All the other calls to this
function are run in the background for the distfile gathering process, and
a missing file in that list is an inconvenience at worst.
