[pve-devel] [PATCH storage 1/2] rbd: improve handling of missing images

It can happen, that an RBD image isn't cleaned up 100%. Calling 'rbd ls
-l' will then show errors that it is not possible to open the image in
question:
```
rbd: error opening vm-103-disk-1: (2) No such file or directory
rbd: listing images failed: (2) No such file or directory
```

Originally we only showed the last error line which is too generic and
doesn't give a good hint what is actually wrong.

We can improve that by catching these specific errors and add the
problematic disk imageto the returned list with a size of '-1'.
This way, normal operation won't be affected by errors and users can
still see that there is a broken image.

When the 'rbd rm' command is used on such an image, it will clean up
whatever is still left.
But for that to work, we also need to handle these errors in the
'rbd_ls_snap' sub as it is called from 'free_image'.

Instead of parsing the error, we could have also ignored these specific
errors and run 'rbd ls' (without -l) a second time and compare the
outputs as the non -l variant will list the broken image as well.
But then we need to run a potentially expensive command twice.

Not sure if the way I parse the errors and handle the decision if we
have an error on which we should die ($show_err) is the most elegant
way.
