Summary

Add a mokosuitebackup.snapshot task type for com_scheduler so content snapshots can run on a schedule.

Task Parameters

content_types — which types to snapshot (articles, categories, modules)
description_format — template with placeholders like [date] Scheduled snapshot
retention_count — max snapshots to keep (auto-delete oldest)

Why

Sites that receive automated content imports (RSS, API feeds) benefit from nightly content snapshots for easy rollback, independent of full backups.
