[pve-devel] [PATCH qemu-server 1/2] parser/writer: namespace pending section

[Oguz Bektas]

to make the pct/qemu config formats more similar, we can namespace the
pending section using the 'pve:' prefix like in pct parser.

the new format is optional in the parser, but default in the writer.

with PVE 7.0, we can make it default in parser too.
