There should be a built in way to get automatically get rid of old backups e.g. keep only last X backups

Instead of deleting anything automatically I'm thinking about adding a rake task for deleting old stuff...

@mmarschall Thanks for sharing this awesome gem! Using cron and s3db backup in my project.

I am working on a setting which if set, allows only a fixed number of backups by deleting older ones. Will send a PR soon.
