Ability to add custom paths where restorepkg/WHM Restore will look for valid cpmove archives

[This feature request came in through customer request via our ticket system.]


As a server administator, I would like to be able to add custom paths to a configuration that /scripts/restorepkg & WHM's restore feature will reference when seeking valid cpmove archives to allow easier restorations.

The desire for this behavior comes from users pulling in backups from other servers/systems and wanting to stage them out of /backup instead of (for example) /home when using restorepkg. With the new backup system, they may want to have staged the backup in /backup instead of the granular path that a new backup would generate for that user.


As it stands, restorepkg & WHM's restore feature will only look in very specific locations. The customer bringing this up would like to be able to add custom location(s) that restorepkg & WHM's Restore feature will reference when looking for valid cpmoves.

Or just have the new system looking /backup/cpbackup/*, or whatever the new path is, for folders containing backups, as it works now with the legacy system.
