Description
Restore currently copies the the backup into the Journal and then restores from that file. The backup file itself can be large and on resource constrained devices, XO-1, can fill the Journal prior to restore. Restore should directly extract from the USB drive rather then first copying the backup file into the Journal.

Dupe of #496. This is a shortcoming in Sugar (which does the copying before Restore is even started). However icarito and I are working on providing a workaround by implementing a custom Object Chooser that directly access the storage device. Backup already does this for writing the backup bundle, so we only need to generalise this a bit and wire it up in Restore. See also #2373.
