mariabackup: rename --stream=xbstream to --stream=mbstream

Details

    Description

      The "xbstream" utility from XtraBackup has been renamed to "mbstream" in MariaDB Backup:

      [ec2-user@ip-172-30-0-58 ~]$ rpm -ql percona-xtrabackup-24 | grep stream
      /usr/bin/xbstream
      /usr/share/man/man1/xbstream.1.gz
      [ec2-user@ip-172-30-0-58 ~]$ rpm -ql MariaDB-backup | grep stream
      /usr/bin/mbstream
      

      However, the mariabackup utility still expects the "xbstream" value for the --stream argument:

      $ mariabackup --help
      mariabackup based on MariaDB server 10.2.14-MariaDB Linux (x86_64)
      Open source backup tool for InnoDB and XtraDB
      ...
        --stream=name       Stream all backup files to the standard output in the
                            specified format.Supported format is 'xbstream'.
      ...
      

      Maybe it would make sense to change this value to "mbstream" as well?

            The format was not changed. mbstream utility is called so, because someone wanted to avoid name clashes with Percona utilities.
            why should be rename format ? What does it bring, except further incompatibilities
