Don't backup /home unless -o is specified #2

Hello. Thank you for the great script! I'm really happy I found it.

I tried the script with only the -b option, and it started doing the backup of my /home folder. Since my /home folder is quite big, I do a separate backup for it. It would be great if /home wasn't backed up unless -o was specified, or that another (new) option would disable folder backup.

I would remove the /home path from the default paths, it's easy to do. But I'm worried that someone thinks that folder is being copied and it really isn't. On the other hand, I don't like to create an option just for this either. The script already has many options, perhaps too many. When I wrote it I didn't think someone could have that much data in /home, OMV's default behavior is to store data away from rootfs. I need to think about this. You can temporarily manually edit the /usr/sbin/omv-regen file and on line 34 remove the "/home" folder, this will cause it to not be included. That line would look like this: declare -a Directorios=("/etc/libvirt" "/var/lib/libvirt")
