Dynamic Retention with minimum number of backups to retain

[gautamsi]

I had a situation, the backup was failing for few days and I was away from home. when I got back home, everything was deleted as the retention days are passed.

At least having minimum backups to keep will at least provide some backups. Having retention days count from last successful backup should also be helpful. in this case if the backups did not go through then the last backup would not be deleted.

Dynamic retention
this could be like 7 daily backups, 4 weekly backups, 12 monthly backups to keep, takes less backup space and have older data to restore from in any case.

I'll add more flexibility when configuring retention, including the "minimum number of backups to retain" option

This would be so great!
