[pve-devel] partially-applied: [PATCH-SERIES v12 qemu-server/manager] API for disk import and OVF

applied qemu-server patches except 11 and 14-16, see comments on 
indivudal patches.

some unrelated but possibly fix-able as followup things I noticed:
- cloning a running VM with an EFI disk fails, the EFI disk is not 
  mirrorable (so we need another check like for TPM state?)
- cancelling a running clone doesn't cleanup properly (stops with trying 
  to aquire lock and leaves the target VM locked & existing)
