Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/eduardolat/pgbackweb/issues/135

Description: Simplifying the process, enhance organization, and reduce setup redundancy, I propose implementing support for multiple backup destinations within a single backup task.

Benefits:

Efficiency: Reducing the need to create multiple tasks for the same database.
Simplification: Easier to manage and improvement in terms of configuration and maintenance.
Flexibility: Ability to add or remove destinations without additional task setup.

Proposed Implementation:

User Interface:
- Introduce a section or UI element within the backup task creation/edit screen for adding multiple backup destinations.
- Allow users to select local and any available S3 destinations for a single backup task.

Example Use Case: A user wants to back up their PostgreSQL database to both a local disk for faster recovery in case of accidental deletion and to one or more remote S3 services for off-site backup and disaster recovery.

Currently, the user has to create two separate tasks, one for each destination. With support for multiple backup destinations, the user could create a single task and specify both the local disk and any S3 services as destinations.

Hope it's fine I'm using AI to rewrite the post, my original only have 2 lines. That's just too short.

Thanks!
