Question: Why was the backup: section removed from values.yaml in Jenkins Helm Chart 5.8.x?

Hello maintainers 👋,

I noticed that in Jenkins Helm Chart version 5.8.x, the values.yaml no longer contains the backup: section.

In my previous setup with version 4.1.8, the backup: section was still available, and I used it to configure automated backups (e.g., CronJob to S3).

My questions:

1. Could you please clarify why the backup: section was removed in the newer chart versions?
2. If I want to migrate and install Jenkins using Helm Chart 5.8.x, what would be the recommended way to implement backups now?

Thank you very much for your support and for maintaining this chart! 🙏
