Most other backends don't need to run any command just to figure out whether
a file is under VC control or not. Actually vc-arch.el probably should but
it doesn't (`tla' doesn't really provide the right command for it anyway).

vc-do-command can't know whether it's a file-error or something else.

That'd be good, but if it comes at a performance price, it's not clear it's
worth the trouble.
