Create a backup storage layout that supports timestamp restores
We need to create a new backup file layout that will be fast enough to restore based on a timestamp. That means that for each repository, we can quickly locate the backup that is closest to the given timestamp.
The current layout is documented https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitaly/-/blob/master/doc/gitaly-backup.md#pointer-layout
WORM should be considered #5355
Manifest files should be considered #5461 (comment 1475663128)
