Fiona Ebner db5d2a4b77 squash related patches
where there is no good reason to keep them separate. It's a pain
during rebase if there are multiple patches changing the same code
over and over again. This was especially bad for the backup-related
patches. If the history of patches really is needed, it can be
extracted via git. Additionally, compilation with partial application
of patches was broken since a long time, because one of the master key
changes became part of an earlier patch during a past rebase.

If only the same files were changed by a subsequent patch and the
changes felt to belong together (obvious for later bug fixes, but also
done for features e.g. adding master key support for PBS), the patches
were squashed together.

The PBS namespace support patch was split into the individual parts
it changes, i.e. PBS block driver, pbs-restore binary and QMP backup
infrastructure, and squashed into the respective patches.

No code change is intended, git diff in the submodule should not show
any difference between applying all patches before this commit and
applying all patches after this commit.

The query-proxmox-support QMP function has been left as part of the
"PVE-Backup: Proxmox backup patches for QEMU" patch, because it's
currently only used there. If it ever is used elsewhere too, it can
be split out from there.

The recent alloc-track and BQL-related savevm-async changes have been
left separate for now, because it's not 100% clear they are the best
approach yet. This depends on what upstream decides about the BQL
stuff and whether and what kind of issues with the changes pop up.

The qemu-img dd snapshot patch has been re-ordered to after the other
qemu-img dd patches.

Subject: [PATCH] PVE: [Compat]: 4.0 used balloon qemu-4-0-config-size false
here
The underlying issue why this change from upstream to us arised in
the first place is that QEMU 4.0 was already released at the point we
run into this migration issue, so we did the then obvious fallback to
false for virtio-balloon-device qemu-4-0-config-size.
QEMU made that switch back in 4.1, where it now uses a backward
compatible mechanism to detect if the bigger CFG sizes should be
used, i.e., checking the VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_PAGE_POISON or
VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_FREE_PAGE_HINT balloon feature flags.
As for them, upstream released version 4.0 had this to true they keep
it to true in their compatibility record for the 4.0 machine, to
allow live migrations from 4.0 to 4.1.
As for us, downstream released version 4.0 (first public release of
this QEMU) had this to false, we change it back to false again, for
the same reason.
