In preparation of making this 1.6.x error into obstruction conflicts later,
we started skipping obstructing files, recording that by adding a
not-present marker in BASE_NODE (and maybe some tree conflict in some cases,
but I don't know about that part?).
When we have the central db+pristine store ready we can switch to just
continuing the BASE_NODE update, while adding an obstruction conflict to
record that the in-wc file is not the real wc-file.
