"we" should be avoided, it's never quite clear who is "we" in the
context here and it leads to some technical wrong meanings, e.g., we
(here assumed to be "we developers") do not read any backup data, the
Proxmox Backup client does.

This needs to happen in a separate loop, because some time intervals are not
subsets of others, i.e. weeks and months. Previously, with a daily backup
schedule, having:
* a backup on Sun, 06 Dec 2020 kept by keep-daily
* a backup on Sun, 29 Nov 2020 kept by keep-weekly
would lead to the backup on Mon, 30 Nov 2020 to be selected for keep-monthly,
because the iteration did not yet reach the backup on Sun, 29 Nov 2020 that
would mark November as being covered.

by creating a new class that adds a clear trigger and also uses the
clear-trigger image. Code was taken from the one in PBS's prune window,
but we have default values here, so a bit of adapting was necessary. For
example, we don't want to reset to the original value (which might have
been one of the defaults) when clearing, but always to 'null'.

The space between '--' and 'path' in two of the commands was wrong. The other
changes make the names of the store and token consistent with the rest of the
section and should improve readability.
Also add the Datastore.Verify permission in the output of the command:
proxmox-backup-manager user permissions john@pbs --path /datastore/store1
A DatastoreAdmin now has this permission and that's what john@pbs is in the
example.
