[pve-devel] [PATCH qemu-server 1/1] create_vm: assume HA state 'started' when live-restoring guests

To avoid shutting down the VM when performing a live-restore, consider
live-restore=1 to translate to a HA state of 'started', similar to
start=1.

Used defined-or since in pve-manager, we only ever set one of the two
values and in any other case I'd give precedence to the 'start'
parameter if it is explicitly set.
