release 1.4.0b1, beta quality, for testing only

borgbackup 1.4.0b1 release

First beta release of the new 1.4-maint branch.

borg 1.4 is kind of a refreshed 1.2 with mostly the same features and behavior, but a few bigger changes that could introduce issues and thus were not suitable for just releasing them as 1.2.x, but rather need some testing first.

Especially authors of scripts, wrappers, automations and GUI frontends may want to look at BORG_EXIT_CODES.

All stuff listed in the changelog should get practically tested, especially correct behavior with BORG_EXIT_CODES=modern set and in error/warning conditions.
