The filesystem structure is made available as a directory in a consistent manner (with details depending on the vzdump backup mode) just like for regular backup via tar.
The backup_container() method of the backup provider is executed in a user namespace with the container's ID mapping applied. This allows the backup provider to see the container's filesystem from the container's perspective. The 'prepare' phase of the backup hook is executed right before and allows the backup provider to prepare for the (usually) unprivileged execution context in the user namespace. The backup provider needs to back up the guest and firewall configuration and the filesystem structure of the container, honoring file exclusions and the bandwidth limit.
