Make it possible to restore compressed .nbk files without explicitly 
decompressing them
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: CORE-4462
                 URL: http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/browse/CORE-4462
             Project: Firebird Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: NBACKUP
    Affects Versions: 3.0 Beta 1
            Reporter: Alexander Peshkov


Ability to compress nbackup output on the fly helps to save both backup time 
and avoid need in disk space for intermediate uncompressed files:
nbackup -b 0 employee stdout | bzip2 >e.b0.bz2
nbackup -b 1 employee stdout | bzip2 >e.b1.bz2

Unforutnately that trick does not work when restore is needed cause a set of 
uncompressed files is required for utility:
nbackup -r e.fdb e.b0 e.b1

It would be great to make nbackup decompress files on the fly one by one, 
without wasting resources for intermediate files.
