This PR adds the `mount` command to rustic to access snapshot contents
as a read-only filesystem when the feature-flag `mount` is chosen.
As for the `webdav` command, there are following options:
- Access to a concrete snapshot/path, e.g. `rustic mount /mnt
37a63e5b:/my/path`.
- Access to all snapshots (maybe restricted by filters) by using
templates to define a virtual directory structure where snapshots are
located. Example: `rustic mount /mnt --path-template
"[{hostname}]/[{label}]/{time}" --time-template "%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S"`
(these are also defined as default). Note that for all dirs containing
only snapshots, also a `latest` entry is generated. `latest` and
identical subsequent snapshots are symlinks when using `mount`.
This PR uses fuse_mt which is not optimal as it introduces some overhead
(e.g. needs to save whole Paths in-memory).
Note: Requires https://github.com/rustic-rs/rustic_core/pull/331 to
properly show all data of files (without it builds and runs, but files
are truncated and return error when reading).
Note: Building with the `mount` feature flag requires special
dependencies and is only possible on supported platforms, see

fast, encrypted, and deduplicated backups
About
rustic is a backup tool that provides fast, encrypted, deduplicated backups.
It reads and writes the restic repo format described in the design document and can be used as a restic replacement in most cases.
It is implemented in Rust, a performant, memory-efficient, and reliable cross-platform systems programming language.
Hence rustic supports all major operating systems (Linux, MacOs, *BSD), with
Windows support still being experimental.
Stability
rustic currently is in beta state and misses regression tests. It is not
recommended to use it for production backups, yet.
rustic Libraries
The rustic project is split into multiple crates:
- rustic - the main binary
- rustic-core - the core library
- rustic-backend - the library for supporting various backends
Features
- Backup data is deduplicated and encrypted.
- Backup storage can be local or cloud storages, including cold storages.
- Allows multiple clients to concurrently access a backup repository using lock-free operations.
- Backups by default are append-only on the repository.
- The operations are robustly designed and can be safely aborted and efficiently resumed.
- Snapshot organization is possible by hostname, backup paths, label and tags. Also a rich set of metadata is saved with each snapshot.
- Retention policies and cleaning of old backups can be highly customized.
- Follow-up backups only process changed files, but still create a complete backup snapshot.
- In-place restore only modifies files which are changed.
- Uses config files for easy configuration of all every-day commands, see example config files.

Minimum Rust version policy
This crate's minimum supported rustc version is 1.80.0.
The current policy is that the minimum Rust version required to use this crate
can be increased in minor version updates. For example, if crate 1.0 requires
Rust 1.20.0, then crate 1.0.z for all values of z will also require Rust
1.20.0 or newer. However, crate 1.y for y > 0 may require a newer minimum
version of Rust.
In general, this crate will be conservative with respect to the minimum supported version of Rust.
