[pbs-devel] [PATCH proxmox-backup] proxmox-backup-manager: show task log on datastore create

[Dominik Csapak]

as it turns out, this patch not only improves the visible feedback,
but actually fixes a but where one cannot create
the datastore via cli

seemingly, embedding an async api call into the clihandler that
returns a upid and starts a worker, does not start
in proxmox-backup-proxy, but directly in the cli handler?

which gets cancelled as soon as the upid is  printed?
