we could get rid of this historic anomaly while we're at it, and make
the new vtype just encoded as vol-ct for consistency - that those are
always filesystem datasets, and the vol-vm ones always zvols is an
implementation detail then?

`israw` is a weird identifier here. it's also not used anywhere, so
maybe we could drop it for now and think of a better name if we ever
need it?

the old convention was actually a lot more loose, see below..
we probably should add a warning to pve8to9 for volumes on builtin
storage types that don't match this strict scheme at least?

as discussed off list, this regressed recently and needs to be fixed -
we only want to skip snapshot volumes, and allow other things for the
legacy types..
