Restic repository not initialized by default in GCP

[mradalbert]

Describe the bug

When performing initial backup to empty GCP bucket autorestic does not initialize repo on remote. If repo is initialized manually and key is set in .autorestic.yml backup works.

Expected behavior

If there is no restic repo autorestic initializes it.
