If we keep it, let's decide what new tables can be ignored when restoring

We keep it, but only support backward restore to previous major ODS version.
That approach would allow backward restore to any previous FB version, although
thru a cumbersome multiple restore path. If need to restore from v4 to v2.5,
Sean, what benefits do you see in this restore method compared with more
tradiitional - backup v4 database using v4 server and v2.5 gbak, next
restore using 2.5 as usual?
