backups: Consolidate dump logic into "dumpster" tool
This tool combines the weekly and daily dumps into a single
tool with the dump pattern:
0 (sundays / weekly cron)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 (mon - sun, daily)
The benefit here is that we can see what changed on a day-to-day
basis (starting from the beginning of the week), which also
minimizes the size of each dump. This comes at the cost of a
full system rebuild taking potentially 7 restores (but in reality,
we probably would just restore from 0 and grab select files for
users...)
While we're here, I also removed the dump's of /usr and /usr/local.
Both are big (~1GB) and not worth storing (since we don't expect
them to change _too_ much / we can always reinstall the packages
which are backed up with /var/backups/pkglist).
