Changes from v9:
    * Include $! in the error for the file check.
    * Have json_ovf_properties return all of them rather than just
      the disk-related ones, and add description for cpu/name/memory.
    * Tiny style fixes foreach -> for, etc.

The file check can also fail because of permission problems, since the
API endpoint is not protected => 1, when used via the web UI and when
the manifest is at a location not accessible to www-data (e.g. in
/root/ on a default installation).

Including $! in the error message helps of course, but I'm sure
there'll be users wondering why they get permission errors while being
logged in as root in the web UI. Not sure what to do about it though.
