borgstore: a key/value store in python - maybe for borg2?

[ThomasWaldmann]

This is mostly for developers and people interested in bleeding edge stuff.

I currently work on an experimental branch to make borg2 work with this:

https://github.com/borgbackup/borgstore

That's a very simple and clean implementation of a key/value store and currently supports file: and sftp: storage. It's simple enough so that it can be easily extended with other backends, like e.g. for http: (talking to a not-yet-existing borg http service) or s3: or ....

So, if you are curious, have a look and give feedback on the issue tracker there.
