[Change] add `ts-dump` and `ts-restore`
Change in content, appearance, or functionality?
New content relative to ts-dump and ts-restore (which I believe are the official tools to backup/restore a database with timescale).
Describe the change
- In the
using-timescaledb/toolingpage: add descriptions tots-dumpandts-restore.
That page should also mention that in some linux distributions all the tools (timescaledb-parallel-copy, timescaledb-tune, ts-dump, ts-restore) can easily be installed with a package (example: for debian/ubuntu, it's the timescaledb-tools package). That's not obvious until you read github page / documentation of those tools.
- In the
using-timescaledb/backuppage: add a new section after "Using pg_dump and pg_restore", which could be named "Using ts-dump and ts-restore".

How soon is this needed?
Not urgent I guess. I found ts-dump / ts-restore with a quick google search, but would be better if these tools were present in the docs.
I can submit an initial PR for this issue, if you are interested.
Hello @paulovieira, thank you for the suggestion!
We're revamping the content and website of our docs and I'll make sure we add the information.
If you want to provide the PR, it's very welcome!
