[pve-devel] Task List Migration

Migrate the VM then migrate the logs for that VM.
Or use some sort of central logging system/distributed database.
A distributed NoSQL database seems like a good place to store the task
logs, each task can simply be a document.

Three ways to deal with task logs when a VM is deleted:
a) never reuse a VMID
or
b) Delete all task logs for that VM when it is deleted
or
c)generate a GUID on VM creation, store GUID in the VM conf file.
Include GUID as part of the log index eg <VMID>+<GUID>
If VM is deleted and VMID reused, the tasks with the old GUID would
not be displayed for the same VMID with new GUID
