as we have an API for backup a keyspace, let's expose this feature
with nodetool. so we can exercise it without the help of scylla-manager
or 3rd-party tools with a user-friendly interface.
in this change:
* add a new subcommand named "backup" to nodetool
* add test to verify its interaction with the API server
* add two more route to the REST API mock server, as
the test is using /task_manager/wait_task/{task_id} API.
for the sake of completeness, the route for
/task_manager/{part1} is added as well.
* update the document accordingly.
* the bash completion script is updated accordingly.

Front-end tests for nodetool
The tests in this directory exercise the nodetool client itself, mocking the API backend. This allows for testing all combinations of all supported options, and still keeping the tests quick.
The tests can be run against both the scylla-native nodetool (default), or the inherited, C*-based nodetool.
Run all tests against the scylla-native nodetool:
pytest --nodetool=scylla .
You can specify the path to the scylla binary with the --nodetool-path option. By default the tests will pick up the ScyllaDB executable, that is appropriate for the --mode option (defaults to dev).
Run all tests against the C* nodetool:
pytest --nodetool=cassandra .
Again, you can specify the path to the nodetool binary with --nodetool-path option. By default, <scylladb.git>/tools/java/bin/nodetool will be used.
When running the test against the java-nodeotol, you can specify the path to JMX with --jmx-path option. By default, <scylladb.git>/tools/jmx/scripts/scylla-jmx will be used.
If you add new tests, make sure to run all tess against both nodetool implementations, to avoid regressions. Note that CI/promotion will only run the tests against the scylla-native nodetool.
