Summary0002962: Allow backup to use cdn_transfer mechanism
DescriptionCall cdn_transfer hooks from the backup system, to possibly copy a backup file to one of the configured CDN services. This is effectively automated off-site backup.

(e.g. to Dropbox, if 0001392 is implemented)

The CDN transfer hooks decide, based on paths, what would syndicate. So it would be configured by having exports/backups in the path. Probably that should be a default.

Consider also stripping out the direct support the backup system has for backing up to FTP, and make this code into a cdn_transfer hook too. That way anything can benefit from the same system.

This would be a cool feature. At the same time, it's not too hard to set up something like rsync to do it.

We don't really need this.
If we want it stored on shared storage, we can do that with NFS already. We just mount it correctly. Even S3 can be mounted using FUSE.

It's best to leave cdn_transfer just for specifically transferring uploads to edge networks / for people who don't have enough disk space for user uploads and cannot set up FUSE.
