Document How Confluence Backup Works With The New FileStore (No longer stored at /webdav/backupmanager, and saved only as Site_Backup.zip)

      Summary

      Site Backups are no longer downloadable via /webdav/backupmanager, but downloadable instead via the temp directory (with URLs like /wiki/download/temp/filestore/ebe7bb18-0229-4907-a86f-f62415e9c135 ). The Site backup itself, is simply named only as Site_Backup.zip (which is ambiguous, and does not have timestamp appended). So essentially, what we need is:

      1. Documentation on the changes
      2. A better filename for the site backup file itself, with timestamp appended for ease of administration

      This is important for customers managing their backups with scripts to automatically generate the backup and download it.
