GCP Export Cloud Backup Snapshot support
Currently "Export Cloud Backup Snapshot" is a really good feature for off-line backups, but it only supports S3. This is quite limiting for organisations that don't use AWS. It would be really good if it also supported GCP Cloud Storage.

Agreed with the sentiment already present here; we are occurring additional costs in AWS we wouldn't be as a GCP deployed organization just to ensure our data is backed up. Since our clusters are deployed on GCP there should be an option to export to GCS, not AWS.

Not supporting GCP direct export is indeed a huge *not documented* surcharge for us. We're currently being charged twice for an export: Atlas egress fees ($.125/GB) as well as GCP egress fees (also $.125/GB). This is complete non-sense.

Moreover we would like to encrypt our backup before sending them to AWS so it would be really useful for us to have this supported.
Also, we are currently charged A LOT for the cloud backup because we pay the export cost to AWS (documented in the MongoDB Atlas doc) + the price of transfert from GCP to another Cloud. We would avoid this with an export directly to GCP and then a manual export form GCP to AWS.

Our organization requires external storage of backups for critical systems. If this feature was available on GCP, it would be extremely useful.
