[pve-devel] qemu-sever>=4.0-15 and pve-qemu-kvm<2.4-1 are incompatible at the moment

like the machines they were trying to backup were still running,
so they were probably already running before upgrading, iow.
still running the incompatible binary, so of course that would
be a problem with an API change like that.
