[pbs-devel] [PATCH v3] rest-server: check permissions on proxy.key and proxy.pem files

[Gabriel Goller]

To avoid openssl's unhelpful error messages when the proxy.key or
proxy.pem files have the wrong permissions, we open the files. To load
the private key, we can simply read from the file and pass it to the
`set_private_key` openssl function. Sadly such a function does not exist
for loading certificate chains, so we have to open and close the file
before calling the `set_certificate_chain_file` fn.

v3, thanks @Wolfgang:
 - switch `context` with `with_context`
 - use std::fs::read directly without the utf-8 checks

v2, thanks @Wolfgang:
 - move check from proxmox-backup-server to proxmox-rest-server
 - check permissions by opening files
