[pve-devel] [PATCH manager v3] make task log downloadable in the PVE manager backend

The read tasklog API call now streams the log file if the limit
parameter is set to 0. If not, it should behave the same as before.
This is done in preparation for the task log download button to be
added in the TaskViewer.
