Backup Location

Can we set backup location manually? I want to have my backups in SD card. I believe it’s safer that way.

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.** I have a clo…ud folder on my android device. I configure some apps to do regular backups into that folder. I would like to do this with AnkiDroid, too, but I don't want to put the main AnkiDroid folder into my cloud folder, since it contains 10k+ (media) files. **Describe the solution you'd like** An option for choosing a custom path for the backup folder. **Describe alternatives you've considered** Relying on AnkiWeb for backup. Or manually copying the backup files. **Additional context** Since AnkiWeb provides some way of backup, it is of less priority. However since local backups are still encouraged (by the AnkiWeb docs/terms), I think it would be a nice option. Also this is only relevant for setups that do not sync to another device regularly (since then that would be an additional form of backup).
