PM-1739 in 1.41.3.9232 introduces what I hope is a regression

@diligiant I can confirm I’m seeing this change in behaviour. Basically the plex scanner is now soft deleting ALL items if the top level folder is not mounted. Its very easy to reproduce …

  1. Lets say I have a library and the folder in the library is /data/MediaServer/4a-Music/Music Collection which is a mounted NFS.
  2. If you unmount this NFS and then run the plex scanner EVERYTHING is soft deleted within plex.

This change happens with 1.41.3.9232 and does not happen with 1.41.2.9200. Previously if the mount was not detected plex would NOT soft delete the entire library. It was kinda like a safety net if mounts were unavailable.
