[Bug?] Non-existent agenda file %s.

[Akash Pal]

I came across this flow of execution while trying to export a ghost org-file to pdf, meaning that the file is 'created' through #'find-file but not saved. While export the following backtrace is noted:

```
Debugger entered--entering a function:
* org-check-agenda-file("/home/akash/Desktop/test.org")
org-agenda-prepare-buffers(("/home/akash/Desktop/test.org"))
org-map-entries((lambda nil (org-set-tags (delete "attached" (org-get-tags)))) "attached")
custom/org-export-remove-attached-tag(latex)
org-export-as(latex nil nil nil (:output-file "org-exports/test/test.tex"))
org-export-to-file(latex "org-exports/test/test.tex" nil nil nil nil nil org-latex-compile)
org-latex-export-to-pdf(nil nil nil nil)
org-export-dispatch(nil)
funcall-interactively(org-export-dispatch nil)
command-execute(org-export-dispatch)

```

I have provisions to call #'org-map-entries before export this triggers #'org-agenda-prepare-buffers which finally calls #'org-check-agenda-files

This asks the user what to do with a non existent file

Non-existent agenda file %s. [R]emove from list or [A]bort?

Problem

I think this should not be called unless the file is part of 'org-agenda-files

I have resorted to advicing the function as follows:

```
;; Advice-Patch
;; if #'org-map-entries is called then #'org-check-agenda-file is executed through #'org-agenda-prepare-buffers
;; issue: neither functions is relevant to non-agenda files, causes bug asking user for extra input
;; Non-existent agenda file %s.  [R]emove from list or [A]bort?
;; see : https://github.com/bzg/org-mode/blob/ec5d76bce1434a54a9a529dbe250b09dc3c132c0/lisp/org.el#L15340
;; Possible solution: Do not call #'org-agenda-prepare-buffers for non-agenda files => ~exist 'org-agenda-files

(defun my-org-agenda-prepare-buffers-advice (orig-func &rest args)
"Advice function to modify `org-agenda-prepare-buffers'.
It filters the FILES argument to ensure only agenda files are processed."
(let ((files (if (listp (car args)) (car args) nil)))
(when files
(setq files (seq-filter #'(lambda (file) (member file org-agenda-files)) files)))
(apply orig-func (list files))))

(advice-add 'org-agenda-prepare-buffers :around #'my-org-agenda-prepare-buffers-advice)
```

I don't know if this is a bug or something peculiar to my use case. Leaving the solution for others to see and possibly advice further.
