This patch series introduces the pre/post/failed-snapshot hooks that run before/
after a snapshot is taken, or after failing to take a snapshot.

I used the new example script from pve-docs as template for my test hookscripts.

What I tested:
* Normal snapshotting, without VM state, without hookscript
   * snapshot works, no hooks executed
* Normal snapshotting, with VM state, without hookscript
   * snapshot works, no hooks executed
* Normal snapshotting, without VM state, with hookscript
   * snapshot works, pre/post hooks work
* Normal snapshotting, with VM state, with hookscript
   * snapshot works, pre/post hooks work
* Taking snapshot with existing name, with hookscript
   * fails, no hookscripts get executed
* Failed at wrong storage config, with hookscript
   * pre/failed get executed, lock gets released
* Failed at taking RAM Snapshot (simulated with monkey-patched die), with 
hookscript
   * pre/failed get executed, lock gets released
* pre/post hookscript that detaches/attaches unsnapshottable disk (without 
--skiplock)
   * snapshotting fails, attach/detach fails, pre/failed get executed, lock 
released
* pre/post hookscript that detaches/attaches unsnapshottable disk (with 
--skiplock)
   * snapshotting works, attach/detach works, pre/post get executed
   * restoring works, detached disk is detached after restoring
* pre-snapshot hookscript exits with code > 0
   * pre/failed-snapshot get executed, snapshot fails, lock gets released
* post-snapshot hookscript exits with code > 0
   * pre/post/failed-snapshot get executed, snapshot fails, lock gets released
* Taking snapshot of template
   * fails, no hookscripts get executed
* execute commands in VM in pre/post via qm guest exec
   * snapshot succeeds, commands get executed, pre/post executed

Changes from v2 (thanks fabian!):
* added guards, so cfs_update() only gets called when necessary
* added PVE_SNAPSHOT_PHASE envvar to failed-snapshot as indicator
   when the failure occured

Changes from v1:
* added failed-snapshot hook that runs after a failed snapshot
   * this enables users to revert any changes made in pre-snapshot hooks
   in case of errors
* running cfs_update() after every hookscript invocation
* adjusted the call sites of exec_hookscript()
   * particularly interesting for pre-snapshot since some checks now run
   before the hook runs
* VM/CT config is now locked during hookscript execution

Thanks to Fiona and Fabian for their valuable input/help!
