[pve-devel] [PATCH-SERIES v2 qemu-server/storage/guest-common 0/7] slightly improve image format handling

[Fiona Ebner]

v1: https://lore.proxmox.com/pve-devel/20250207125514.42668-1-f.ebner@proxmox.com/

Changes in v2:
* different approach, use existing format
* introduce standard option
* add patches to drop mythological 'cow' format

Allow using 'vmdk' for the 'format' option when allocating an image
with 'pvesm' or storage API.

Drop the ancient 'cow' format from supported qm image formats that was
dropped in QEMU 2.2.

Introduce a standard option for supported image formats on storages
superseding the existing 'pve-storage-format' format.


Dependency bump guest-common -> storage needed for the new standard
option.
