Seems undocumented...

...until I read this. Hmm, I think we should first consolidate things
for DriveBackup (so that documentation is listed only once, prior to the
DriveBackup 'type' declaration), by rebasing things on top of
in the same was as Kevin's series "[PATCH v3 0/3] qapi: Top-level type
reference for command definitions" does for BlockdevSnapshot.
The documentation is not incorrect, but it also isn't very helpful -
what is the "drive id of the target" and when would I want to set it?
What do I gain by overriding the drive id, and what is the default
behavior when I don't pass in the option?

Should probably mention (json-string, optional), as done elsewhere in
this command.
