Mark Goddard 7f47ddf7f4 Use mariabackup for database backups
Currently, Xtrabackup is used for database backups. However, Xtrabackup
is not compatible with MariaDB 10.3. This change switches to use
mariabackup [1], which is available in the mariadb image.

The documented full and incremental restore procedures have been
modified to use mariabackup, following [2] and [3].

upgrade:
- |
Changes the database backup procedure to use ``mariabackup`` which is
compatible with MariaDB 10.3. The ``qpress`` based compression used
previously is now replaced with ``gzip``. The documented restore procedure
has been modified accordingly. See the `Mariabackup documentation
<https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/mariabackup-overview/>`__ for further
information.
deprecations:
- |
The ``enable_xtrabackup`` variable is deprecated in favour of
``enable_mariabackup``.
