[pve-devel] [PATCH manager] fix maxfiles behavior

[Fabian Ebner <f.ebner@proxmox.com>]

Commit 5ba2a605ac14de58572f7b8d6e04b45b34724b0a hard-coded 0 as the default
for maxfiles in the --storage case, but the actual default should be the
value from read_vzdump_defaults(), which obtains the value from
/etc/vzdump.conf or the VZDump schema if the value has not been modified in
that file. The initial default from the schema is 1, not 0.
Tested on PVE 6.1 to verify that behavior.

Move the sanity check for zero-ness to where we have the final value for
maxfiles. Like this, we also have an implicit definedness check and more
importantly, it is more future-proof in case we ever allow maxfiles 0 in the
VZDump schema itself.

Also, force conversion to int to be extra safe.

@Stefan: I wasn't able to trigger a warning about using '== 0' on a non-number type,
the only thing I can get is:
Use of uninitialized value in numeric eq (==)

Does this patch work with your use case as well or is there something off?
