[pbs-devel] [PATCH proxmox-backup] api2/tape/backup: wait indefinitely for lock in scheduled backup jobs

[Dominik Csapak <d.csapak@proxmox.com>]

so that a user can schedule multiple backup jobs onto a single
media pool without having to consider timing them apart

this makes sense since we can backup multiple datastores onto
the same media-set but can only specify one datastore per backup job
