Backup USB drive on insert #51

Problem

Want to backup flashdrives or external drives on insert withouth having to shell in, mount and move data around.

Solution

[ ] Using udev you can watch for new drives
[ ] When new drive is detected check if its a usb drive
[ ] Mount the drive
[ ] Create a backup directory in user specified location from config
[ ] Copy the files over to the backup directory
[ ] Unmount the drive
[ ] Notify user of success if configured

Configuration

- backups:
  - path: /docker-nas/home/backups
  - notification:
            enabled: true

Notify may be "true", "false" or "email" etc. Parsed as string. True will use server default.
