files: do not silently ignore an invalid backup directory, but die
It would be horrible if the user expects to find numbered backups of all the files that were changed but they are NOT there because the config file contains a typo or the relevant directory was moved or renamed or something. So... if the specified backup directory is not usable, nano should complain and simply not start up.
