[pbs-devel] [PATCH proxmox/proxmox-backup] add 'pbs-shell' tool

[Hannes Laimer]

I just noticed two things while testing:
 - if an endpoint expects a parameter called 'path'(e.g. POST /config
     /datastore), the parameter conflicts with the api path itself
 - even though commands like verify(POST /admin/datastore/<name>/verify)
or gc(POST /admin/datastore/<name>/gc) are started and run successfully,
`Error: control socket connect failed - Connection refused (os error
111)` is displayed almost always at the end.

Note: For testing I applied the patches on
b65dfff574f44e5a60db3903d2226f4dbe386b7a, I assume the moving of stuff
after that should not effect the functionality
