[pve-devel] [PATCH 00/12] installer: add crate for common code

[Christoph Heiss]

Had a lot of in-person discussions with Aaron over the last few weeks
over this.
There are no real functional changes here that would impact users,
merely a code move.

Each inidivdual patch (except #1, see my answer on that) builds cleanly
on top of current master. The one dependency (see below) is also already
applied. I also did some quick smoke testing to verify everything really
still works.

I will go over the the rest of the patches afterwards, but from a glance
there is nothing that I would consider a blocker.
Things like e.g. the `InstallConfig` stuff can be done separately as
followups.

Also considering this is a great code churn, I would rather have this
get applied sooner than later, such that all future work is done on top
of this.

The only "complaint" here is that the .deb package does not build with
this series (see my reply on #1). I will shortly send a quick follow-up
patch for that, so you don't have to necessarily re-spin the whole
series just for a single, trivial line.

LGTM; thus please consider the whole series:
