[pve-devel] [PATCH qemu-server v2 08/32] drive: remove geometry options gone since QEMU 3.1

It was not possible to start a QEMU instance with these options set
since QEMU version 3.1, QEMU commit b24ec3c462 ("block: Remove
deprecated -drive geometry options") and thus also not to take a
backup. It is still possible to restore an old backup with these
options set.

Changes in v2:
* Different approach, skip dropped keys, rather than allowing all
additional properties.
