This PR adds gpBackMan, a utility for managing backups created by gpbackup. The tool provides an open-source alternative to the proprietary `gpbackup_manager`, addressing the need discussed in apache/cloudberry#1555 gpBackMan is based on the original [gpbackman](https://github.com/woblerr/gpbackman) project (woblerr/gpbackman#39) and has been adapted for integration into the cloudberry-backup repository. ## Motivation The Apache Cloudberry community has expressed interest in having a backup management tool similar to gpbackup_manager, which is proprietary and not available in the open-source offering. gpBackMan fills this gap by providing essential backup management capabilities that work with the `gpbackup_history.db` SQLite history database format. ## Features gpBackMan provides the following functionality: * `backup-info` — display information about existing backups; * `report-info` — display the backup report for a specific backup; * `backup-delete` — delete a specific existing backup from local storage or using storage plugins; * `backup-clean` — delete all existing backups older than (or newer than) a specified time condition; * `history-clean` — clean deleted backups from the history database; Both local storage and storage plugin-based backups are supported. ## Related links Discussion: apache/cloudberry#1555 — Availability of GPBackup_Manager in CB2.0 Issue: woblerr/gpbackman#39 — Support for Apache Cloudberry Original project: [gpbackman](https://github.com/woblerr/gpbackman) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
