Ian Wienand b9d98cca21 borg-backup: skip .checkpoint archives
We may see an archive with ".checkpoint" on the end, as described in
[1]; the short version is this that borg stamps this every 30 minutes
and may appear if a long backup is interrupted.  Skip this when making
the list of archives to prune.

Setup backup server

This role configures backup server(s) in the borg-backup-server group to accept backups from remote hosts.

Note that the borg-backup role must have run on each host in the borg-backup group before this role. That role will create a borg_user tuple in the hostvars for for each host consisting of the required username and public key.

Each required user gets a separate home directory in /opt/backups. Their authorized_keys file is configured with the public key to allow the remote host to log in and only run borg in server mode.
