a862835be2 file-restore: use less memory for VM and reboot on panic
With the vsock-pkt-buffer fix in proxmox-backup-restore-image, we can
use way less memory for the VM without risking any crashes. 128 MiB
seems to be the lowest it will go and still be fully reliable.

While at it, add the "panic=1" argument to the kernel command line, so
in case the kernel *does* run out of memory, it will at least restart
automatically.

3526a76ef3 file-restore: don't force PBS_FINGERPRINT env var
It is valid to not set it, in case the server has a valid certificate.

58421ec112 file-restore: add basic VM/block device support
Includes methods to start, stop and list QEMU file-restore VMs, as well
as CLI commands do the latter two (start is implicit).

The implementation is abstracted behind the concept of a
"BlockRestoreDriver", so other methods can be implemented later (e.g.
mapping directly to loop devices on the host, using other hypervisors
then QEMU, etc...).

Starting VMs is currently unused but will be needed for further changes.

The design for the QEMU driver uses a locked 'map' file
(/run/proxmox-backup/$UID/restore-vm-map.json) containing a JSON
encoding of currently running VMs. VMs are addressed by a 'name', which
is a systemd-unit encoded combination of repository and snapshot string,
thus uniquely identifying it.

Note that currently you need to run proxmox-file-restore as root to use
this method of restoring.
