Public bug reported:

I want to use btrfs storage if available, otherwise the plain old
directory/copies. Until not too long ago, this worked:

  $ sudo lxc-create -B best --name=adt-xenial -t ubuntu -- -r xenial

But now in final xenial it fails with "best is not a valid backing
storage type.".

But the manpage still documents it:

              If backingstore is 'best', then lxc will try, in order, btrfs, 
zfs, lvm, and finally a  di‐
              rectory backing store.
