Previously only Datastore.Modify was required for creating a new
datastore.
But, that endpoint allows one to pass an arbitrary path, of which all
parent directories will be created, this can allow any user with the
"Datastore Admin" role on "/datastores" to do some damage to the
system. Further, it is effectively a side channel for revealing the
systems directory structure through educated guessing and error
handling.
Add a new privilege "Datastore.Allocate" which, for now, is used
specifically for the create datastore API endpoint.
Add it only to the "Admin" role.

fuse_loop: handle unmap on crashed instance
If a fuse_loop instance dies suddenly (e.g. SIGKILL), the FUSE mount and
loop device assignment are left behind. We can determine this scenario
on specific unmap, when the PID file is either missing or contains a PID
of a non-running process, but the backing file and potentially loop
device are still there.
If that's the case, do an "emergency cleanup", by unassigning the
loopdev, calling 'fusermount -u' and then cleaning any leftover files
manually.
With this in place, pretty much any situation is now recoverable via
only the 'proxmox-backup-client' binary, by either calling 'unmap' with
or without parameters.

fuse_loop: add automatic cleanup of run files and dangling instances
A 'map' call will only clean up what it needs, that is only leftover
files or dangling instances of it's own name.
For a full cleanup the user can call 'unmap' without any arguments.
The 'cleanup on error' behaviour of map_loop is removed. It is no longer
needed (since the next call will clean up anyway), and in fact fixes a
bug where trying to map an image twice would result in an error, but
also cleanup the .pid file of the running instance, causing 'unmap' to
fail afterwards.

mount/map: use names for map/unmap for easier use
So user doesn't need to remember which loop devices he has mapped to
what.
systemd unit encoding is used to transform a unique identifier for the
mapped image into a suitable name. The files created in /run/pbs-loopdev
will be named accordingly.
The encoding all happens outside fuse_loop.rs, so the fuse_loop module
does not need to care about encodings - it can always assume a name is a
valid filename.
'unmap' without parameter displays all current mappings. It's
autocompletion handler will list the names of all currently mapped
images for easy selection. Unmap by /dev/loopX or loopdev number is
maintained, as those can be distinguished from mapping names.

ui: implment task history limit and make it configurable
we showed 'last month' even if we did not limit the api call
implement that and make the number of days configurable
(we have most of the code already available for that, since
the base dashboard got copied from pmg and never cleaned up)
Since unmapping requires some cleanup (unmap the loopdev, stop FUSE,
remove the temp files) a special 'unmap' command is added, which uses a
PID file to send SIGINT to the backup-client instance started with
'map', which will handle the cleanup itself.
The polling with select! in mount.rs needs to be split in two, since we
have a chicken and egg problem between running FUSE and setting up the
loop device - so we need to do them concurrently, until the loopdev is
assigned, at which point we can report success and daemonize, and then
continue polling the FUSE loop future.
A loopdev module is added to tools containing all required functions for
mapping a loop device to the FUSE file, with the ioctls moved into an
inline module to avoid exposing them directly.
The client code is placed in the 'mount' module, which, while
admittedly a loose fit, allows reuse of the daemonizing code.

REST server: avoid hard coding world readable API endpoints
while we probably do not add much more to them, it still looks ugly.
If this was made so that adding a World readable API call is "hard"
and not done by accident, it rather should be done as a test on build
time. But, IMO, the API permission schema definitions are easy to
review, and not often changed/added - so any wrong World readable API
call will normally still caught.

This can slow things down by a lot on setups with (relatively) high
seek time, in the order of doubling the backup times if cache isn't
populated with the last backups chunk inode info.
Effectively there's nothing known this protects us from in the
codebase. The only thing which was theorized about was the case
where a really long running backup job (over 24 hours) is still
running and writing new chunks, not indexed yet anywhere, then an
update (or manual action) triggers a reload of the proxy. There was
some theory that then a GC in the new daemon would not know about the
oldest writer in the old one, and thus use a less strict atime limit
for chunk sweeping - opening up a window for deleting chunks from the
long running backup.
But, this simply cannot happen as we have a per datastore process
wide flock, which is acquired shared by backup jobs and exclusive by
GC. In the same process GC and backup can both get it, as it has a
process locking granularity. If there's an old daemon with a writer,
that also has the lock open shared, and so no GC in the new process
can get exclusive access to it.
So, with that confirmed we have no need for a "half-assed"
verification in the backup finish step. Rather, we plan to add an
opt-in "full verify each backup on finish" option (see #2988)

When creating a new zpool for a datastore, also instantiate an

the zfsonlinux repository.
api2/node/tasks: use TaskListInfoIterator instead of read_task_list
this makes the filtering/limiting much nicer and readable
since we now have potentially an 'infinite' amount of tasks we iterate over,
and cannot now beforehand how many there are, we return the total count
as always 1 higher then requested iff we are not at the end (this is
the case when the amount of entries is smaller than the requested limit)
server/worker_task: write older tasks into archive file
instead of removing tasks beyond the 1000 that are in the index
write them into an archive file by appending them at the end
this way we can later still read them
one for only the active tasks and one for up to 1000 finished tasks
factor out the parsing of a task file (we will later need this again)
and use iterator combinators for easier code
we now sort the tasks ascending (this will become important in a later patch)
but reverse (for now) it to keep compatibility
this code also omits the converting into an intermittent hash
since it cannot really happen that we have duplicate tasks in this list
(since the call is locked by an flock, and it is the only place where we
write into the lists)
