The aim of this patch series is to adapt `proxmox-mail-forward` 
so that it forwards emails that were sent to the local root user
through the `proxmox_notify` crate.

A short summary of the status quo:
Any mail that is sent to the local `root` user is forwarded by
postfix to the `proxmox-mail-forward` binary, which receives the
mail via STDIN. `proxmox-mail-forward` looks up the email address 
configured for the `root@pam` user in /etc/{proxmox-backup,pve}/user.cfg 
and then forwards the mail to this address by calling `sendmail`

This patch series modifies `proxmox-mail-forward` in the following way:
`proxmox-mail-forward` instantiates the configuration for `proxmox_notify`
by reading `/etc/{proxmox-backup,pve}/notifications.cfg.

The forwarding behavior is the following:
  - PVE installed: Use PVE's notifications.cfg
  - PBS installed: Use PBS's notifications.cfg if present. If not,
    use an empty configuration and add a default sendmail target and
    a matcher - this is needed because notifications are not yet
    integrated in PBS. In that way, the forwarding behavior is still
    the same as before on PBS (forward to root@pam via sendmail).
  - PVE/PBS co-installed: Use PVE's config *and* PBS's config. 
    If PBS's notifications.cfg does not exist, 
    a default sendmail target will *not* be added, to avoid
    forwarding the same mail twice. 
    For co-installations we assume for now that PVE has a sensible
    matcher/target config for forwarded mails.

Required patches:
  - series: 'overhaul notification system, use matchers instead of filters' [2]
  - pve-docs: 'notifications: update docs to for matcher-based notifications' [3]
  - Also, these two patches for 'proxmox' from the SMTP target series [4] are needed:
    - 'sys: email: add `forward`'
    - 'notify: add mechanisms for email message forwarding'

Changelog:
  - v1 -> v2:
    - Rebased
    - Apply the same fix for the PVE context as in [1]
  - v2 -> v3:
    - Rebased on top of matcher-based notification system:
      This simplifies proxmox-mail-forward by a great deal, since 
      notification routing is moved into the matcher. This means 
      proxmox-mail-forward does not need to read /etc/pve/datacenter.cfg
      any more to determine the target for the notification.
