This PR is a contribution of a common mixins library that may be used to simplify common actions when performing backups. It starts with support for snapshots and databases in posix environments.
Status:
Status for the moment, it is just a brain dump of something I wanted to add for some time but it is highly untested, though I use most of the actions in my backups in simplified forms.
