Hassio supervisor saves backups in tar files that contains compressed tar archives, this is convenient when such backups are kept in the same environment or need to be transferred remotely, but it's not convenient when they will be processed using other backup tools such as borg or restic that can handle compression, encryption and data deduplication themselves. In fact deduplication won't actually work at all with hassio compressed backups as there's no way to find common streams for such tools (unless we make them to export the archives during importing as borg's import-tar can do), but this would lead to archives that are not easily recoverable by the supervisor. So, make possible to pass a "compressed" boolean parameter when creating backups that will just archive all the data uncompressed. It will be then up to other tools to manage the archives compression.
