How was this pull request tested?
I tested some "rear mkbackup" / "rear recover"
with the same two VMs as in
https://github.com/rear/rear/pull/2714 -
Brief description of the changes in this pull request:
In layout/recreate/default/120_confirm_wipedisk_disks.sh
skip disks that do not exist on the bare hardware in the recovery
system
cf.
https://github.com/rear/rear/issues/2715
and exclude disks that are write-protected and
cf.
https://github.com/rear/rear/pull/2703#issuecomment-979928423
show what disks will be wiped in any case to the user.
In layout/recreate/default/150_wipe_disks.sh do no longer
open (and close) LUKS volumes because encrypted volumes
contain meaningless data unless opened and unencrypted so there is no
need
to wipe anything inside an encrypted LUKS container, cf. "Regarding
LUKS"
in
https://github.com/rear/rear/pull/2514#issuecomment-743483945

Now wiping RAID array devices works automatically for me
at least for my RAID1 array that I tested here.
@rear/contributors
because by default DISKS_TO_BE_WIPED='false'
the changes here do not affect how ReaR behaves by default
so I would like to merge it next Monday afternoon
if there are no objections.

Same as above in

DISKS_TO_BE_WIPED="/dev/sd[a-z]"
results this "rear recover" excerpts

UserInput -I WIPE_DISKS_CONFIRMATION needed in /usr/share/rear/layout/recreate/default/120_confirm_wipedisk_disks.sh line 154
