Currently, BackupConfiguration allows Deployment kind of backup.

In this configuration, the BackupConfiguration controller adds a Sidecar container to the Deployment container to backup some of Deployment container paths using restic.

The sidecar container can also run Steps before and after the backup to do some initialization and finalization steps.

Those Steps are implemented as Functions which map a Container representation.

Containers accept EnvVar which can be used as parameters to the Command that is ran by the container. It's very handy to pass password hiden in Secrets structures.

It would be good if our Function could do the same.
