[pbs-devel] [RFC PATCH proxmox-backup] ui: implement quoted strings in parsePropertyString

[Dominik Csapak]

like we do in our rust propertystring parser.
code is heavily inspired by the rust code.

if we want to go the js route and not use wasm + rust code for this

i sent it as rfc for pbs (since there we have that property string
implementation), but we actually want this to live in wt, and use it in
pve and pbs both when pve gains support for these.

@thomas, the code is my attempt to write the parser as close to the
rust code as it was sensible, but i'm sure there are some js specific
improvements to be done here. i'll look over it again tomorrow
with fresh eyes and mind, but if you see some things, don't hold back ;)
