Feature request: add ability to create new resulting file instead of modifying base image #1

Daniele, thanks a lot for amazing job! Your apps for ceph backup are extremely useful. However I would be happy to be able to create the new full image instead of rewriting the base one.

It will be very useful in case of "test restore" procedure (when the image to be restored is selected randomly). Currently we are using bash wrapper that copies base image and random set of diffs to PVE image folder then merge them and delete diffs after than. Next we startup (predefined) VM and check data integrity from the inside.

Thanks in advance
