For Deployer we need an optional parameter limit-backups
This is needed so that we can better control the number of backups that are stored and limit the usage of disk space and inodes.
The intended functionality is to pass in an optional parameter when patching: limit-backups=5 and if the number of backups exceeds the limit, then the oldest packages will be deleted similarly to how the packages are deleted when there isn't enough disk space
