[pve-devel] [PATCH pve-storage] fix #6900: correctly detect PBS API tokens in storage plugin

The PBS storage plugin used PVE code to detect if an API token was
entered in the username field. This lead to bad requests for some
valid PBS tokens which are not valid PVE tokens.
Relax the token pattern to allow token names that start with numbers
or underscores. Also allow single character names, which are
technically allowed on the Rust side even though they can't be created
through the PBS Web UI.
