Cannot publish nor unpublish package after partial unpublish

Describe the bug Per https://github.com/verdaccio/verdaccio/blob/5.x/src/api/endpoint/api/publish.ts#L48 there's a chance that due some network errors package version is removed from the metadata, but the tarball remains. If one try to republish the package, verdaccio refuses it. Also it is not possible to unpublish it once more because metadata is missed.

To Reproduce To reproduce network error on the unpublish step you can commit this line: https://github.com/verdaccio/verdaccio/blob/5.x/src/api/endpoint/api/publish.ts#L92

npm publish test-1.0.0.tgz npm publish test-2.0.0.tgz npm unpublish [email protected] npm publish test-2.0.0.tgz

bash
npm ERR! code E400
npm ERR! 400 Bad Request - PUT http://127.0.0.1:4873/test - unsupported registry call

Expected behavior Verdaccio should remove the tarball if it is not present in the metadata and allow one to publish the package.
