[pbs-devel] [PATCH proxmox-backup v3 1/4] pbs-config: add token.shadow generation to ConfigVersionCache

Currently, every token-based API request reads the token.shadow file and
runs the expensive password hash verification for the given token
secret. This shows up as a hotspot in /status profiling (see
bug #7017 [1]).

To solve the issue, this patch prepares the config version cache,
so that token_shadow_generation config caching can be built on
top of it.

This patch specifically:
(1) implements increment function in order to invalidate generations

This patch is part of the series which fixes bug #7017 [1].
