* TODO Backer Tasks

** TODO Consider different compression algorithms
   - [X] Evaluate alternatives to gzip: bz2, xz, lzo, lz4
   - CANCELLED lzo. It has cgo implementaion which depends in liblzo, and native lid that does not support streaming. 
   - [X] Implemented bzip2 as alternative (pure Go, via github.com/dsnet/compress)
   - [ ] Implement xz as another alternative (pure Go, via github.com/ulikunitz/xz)
   - [X] Implement zstd as another alternative (pure Go, via github.com/klauspost/compress/zstd)
   - [ ] Implement lz4 as another alternative (pure Go, via github.com/pierrec/lz4)
   - [X] Add compression_algorithm config option

** DONE Configurable filename prefix
   - [X] Move "backup" prefix to config (currently hardcoded in newServer.go)
   - [X] Default: "backup", e.g., "backup-20260325-092341.tar.gz"
