Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

The filenames in the backup location are really not human readable.

Describe the solution you'd like

Is it possible to have the filenames of the backup to have the same name as the backup in Home Assistant? So it is possible to find the correct backup that has to be used when restoring something (maybe the whole Home Assistant, because the Home Assistant drive is defect).

When using the Samba Backup Add-On the filenames in the Samba share eg. are having the Core Version and the date/time in the filename.

Describe alternatives you've considered

+1. Using the name: as defined in the automation would be nice.

HA Backup {{ now().strftime('%d-%b-%y_%H:%M') }}
