Nit: There is no real relation to the qm CLI tool. I'd prefer
pve-vm-image-format.

Nit: not all file-based storage might (want to) support all. Maybe
simply "VM image format."?

Not sure if we want to make it optional by default. Of course, can still
opt-out when needed at the use-site, but might be easier to forget this
way around. Having it be required by default and the use-site opt-out
might be more natural in this case (with future use-sites in mind). That
also makes it explicitly visible at the use site if optional. You
already specify optional => 1 for both use sites, so no change would be
needed there :) All that said, fine by me either way.
