[pve-devel] [PATCH storage 1/3] volume export/import: allow uppercase letters

[Fabian Ebner]

Bug reported in the community forum[0].

Currently, it's possible to break replication by:
1. have an existing snapshot whose name contains an uppercase letter
2. set up a replication job and run it
3. rollback to the existing snapshot
4. replicate again -> fails

The failure occurs, because after step 3, the most recent common snapshot is the
previously existing one and currently no uppercase letters are allowed for
export/import.

The pve-snapshot-name option uses the CONFIGID_RE
    qr/[a-z][a-z0-9_-]+/i
so it cannot be used here, because it would not allow for e.g. '__migrate__'.
Simply allow uppercase letters, to be backwards compatible and allow all
possible pve-snapshot-name values.

There is still an issue if there also was state volume, but that's a different
bug[1].
