Backports the following commits to 8.19:

Today if the get-snapshots API cannot access one of the repositories we
return a fairly low-level message about the problem, perhaps something
like `Could not determine repository generation from root blobs`. This
message is shown verbatim in the Kibana UI so users need something a
little more descriptive. With this commit we wrap the exception in one
that indicates the problem in terms that users are more likely to
understand.
