[pve-devel] [PATCH storage v7 9/9] pvesm: add a copy-volume command

The method can be called from the PVE shell with `pvesm copy-volume`:

```
pvesm copy-volume <source volume> <target storage> [--target-node <node>] [--delete]
```

For example to copy a VMA backup to a Proxmox Backup Server:

```
pvesm copy-volume \
    local:backup/vzdump-qemu-100-2024_06_25-13_08_56.vma.zst pbs
```

Or copy a container template to another node and delete the source:

```
pvesm copy-volume \
    local:vztmpl/devuan-4.0-standard_4.0_amd64.tar.gz local \
    --target-node pvenode2 --delete
```
