[pve-devel] [PATCH storage/qemu-server/manager v4] implement ova/ovf import for file based storages

This series enables importing ova/ovf from directory based storages,
inclusive upload/download via the webui (ova only).

It also improves the ovf importer by parsing the ostype, nics, bootorder
(and firmware from vmware exported files).

I opted to move the OVF.pm to pve-storage, since there is no
real other place where we could put it. I put it in a new module
'GuestImport'

We now extract the images into either a given target storage or in the
import storage in the 'images' dir so accidentally left over images
are discoverable by the ui/cli.

changes from v3:
* fixed dependencies in control file
* removed unnecessary use statements
* removed unnecessary remove helper
* moved 'needs_extract' helper to qemu-server
* removed import storage param from PUT call
* check down/uploaded ova filename more strictly (same as listing)
* improved filepath checking in ovf
* forbid importing when extracted image references a base/backing file
* instead of trying to manually create a proper filename, use 'alloc' to
  create a small (1M) file with the same format and overwrite it with
  renaming. this also solves the cluster locking issue
* prefer using PVE::Storage functions instead of plugin methods in
  ova extraction code
* use $vollist for cleaning up extracted images in qemu-server and
  add manual cleanup for the success case

changes from v2:
* use better 'format' values for embedded images (e.g. ova+vmdk)
* use this format to decide if images should be extracted
* consistent use of the 'safe character' classes when listing
  and parsing
* also list vmdk/qcow2/raw images in content listing
  (this will be useful when we have a gui for the 'import-from'
  in the wizard/disk edit for vms)
* a few gui adaptions


changes from v1:
* move ovf code to GuestImport
* move extract/checking code to GuestImport
* don't return 'image' types from import volumes
* use allow 'safe' characters for filenames of ova/ovfs and inside
* check for non-regular files (e.g. symlinks) after extraction
* add new 'import-extraction-storage' for import
* rename panel in gui for directory storages
* typo fixes
* and probably more, see the individual patches for details
