[pmg-devel] [PATCH-SERIES pve-common/pmg-api/pve-storage] pbs client: rework namespace usage and minor fixes

Mostly done in preparation for #3186 (refactor pbs client use in PVE),
to avoid the need to manually set the namespace for all call-sites in
PVE, when it's already present in the storage/PBS config.

pve-common 1/5 and 2/5 and pmg-api 1/1 are improvements touching parts
of the same infrastructure, but not directly related.

The other patches change PBSClient to auto-select the namespace from
its initial configuration if not explicitly overriden with a
namespaced parameter and deprecate namespaced parameters as a whole.

Rationale is that essentially all current users of PBSClient are
configured for one namespace (there is the "status" call, which
doesn't depend on a namespace, but that doesn't contradict the
previous claim). It's less work on the call sites and there's no risk
to forget namespacing a parameter (as happened with pxar_restore in
PMG) if the PBSClient handles it itself.

If the need for handling more than one namespace with a single client
ever arises, we can still add e.g. a set_namespace() function to the
PBSClient.

Also makes it possible to restore a backup from a namespace in PMG,
which currently fails.


Dependency bump for new pve-common is needed for pve-storage and
pmg-api.


pve-common:

Fabian Ebner (5):
  pbs client: delete password: return success for non-existent file
  pbs client: forget snapshot: suppress output
  pbs client: default to configured namespace for non-namespaced
    parameters
  pbs client: deprecate namespaced parameters
  pbs client: backup fs tree: drop namespace parameter
