[pve-devel] [PATCH v2 storage 1/1] file_size_info: implement untrusted mode

this allows checking some extra attributes for images which come from a
potentially malicious source.

since file_size_info is not part of the plugin API, no API bump is needed. if
desired, a similar check could also be implemented in volume_size_info, which
would entail bumping both APIVER and APIAGE (since the additional parameter
would make checking untrusted volumes opt-in for external plugins).

    v2: adapt to new early return, add Fiona's R-b
