This patch adds the possibility to load tapes into drives automatically
by specifying a changer. This is useful for larger tape libraries.
Choosing a drive is done by using the drive that has not been used the
longest.

At the moment, this patch implements the functionality for automatic
loading both over the API and using the proxmox-backup CLI tool, as well
as in the web UI when selecting a changer. A second patch will add the
same functionality when configuring backup jobs.

Partially fixes #3351
