Please add a short changelog for new patch revisions in this area.
Placing it here ensures that it will be visible for review, but doesn't
gets picked up by git am, as that info should not contain anything relevant
for the persistent git history, rather just meta info for helping review.

FWICT it would spell out something like:

changelog v2 -> v3:
* drop importing unused PVE::Auth::Plugin module

in this case.

IMO there not much of a point in having the rust code source as literal
comment here, that might change and then one might not be able to draw
that assumption anymore.

Rather, just explicitly state where they come from and why we do not
reuse the PVE specific regex here, something like:

# We cannot use the PVE API token regexes as we're stricter in PVE, so some tokens that would
# be valid for PBS would get rejected. Adapt over the PBS ones from <mod/file/...>
