This patch series implements a trash bin functionality, marking
backup snapshots, groups and namespaces as trashed on prune and
forget instead of deleting them immediately. Cleanup is deferred to
the garbage collection job, allowing to recover the trashed items if
removed by accident.
In contrast to the previous version 1 of the patch series [0] which
moved trashed items to a separate folder structure, this patch series
utilizes the proposed `.trashed` marker file approach to mark and
filter content items. These marker files have to be set and removed
accordingly in a consistent manner and are used to filter in
iterators based on the trash state.
Sending this series as RFC in order to gain some initial feedback on
the chosen implementation approach and possible
shortcomings/oversights. Further, feedback especially for the design
of the WebUI (which still has some rough edges) is very welcome!
