[pbs-devel] [RFC proxmox 2/2] pbs-api-types: extend datastore config by backend config enum

Allows to configure a backend config variant for a datastore on
creation. The current default `Filesystem` backend variant is
introduced to be compatible with existing storages. A new S3 backend
variant allows to create datastores backed by an S3 compatible object
store instead.

For S3 backends, the id of the corresponding S3 client configuration
is storered. A valid datastore backend configuration for S3 therefore
contains:
```
    ...
    backend s3=<S3_CONFIG_ID>
    ...
```
