[pbs-devel] [PATCH proxmox-backup v2] tape: simplify export_media_set for pool writer

[Dominik Csapak]

our export code can handle if the tape is inside the drive, so unloading
it first does not have an benefit, it even makes the exporting slower,
since we first unload it into its original slot, and then moving it
to an import/export slot

so drop the code that unloads the tape from the drive, and let the
export code itself handle that

change the 'eject' into a 'rewind' and comment why we do that first

changes from v1:
* do not drop the rewind first, so that the unload does not timeout. also fix
  comment and log for that
