Added support for WITH options EXPIREDATE and RETAINDAYS.
These arguments are supported by native SQL Server and LiteSpeed backups.

LiteSpeed implementation as arguments for
xp_backup_database:@expiration = 'yyyy-mm-dd | yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss'@retaindays = intReference: https://support.quest.com/technical-documents/litespeed-for-sql-server/8.9.8/user-guide/20#@expiration, https://support.quest.com/technical-documents/litespeed-for-sql-server/8.9.8/user-guide/20#@retaindays
Validation added:
@RetainDaysvalues@BackupSoftwarevaluesNote: Values can legitimately be passed to both arguments, in which case RETAINDAYS takes priority.
Tested successfully with native SQL Backups.
