Changes in v2:
* add patches for container
* log when skipping strict configuration check

For remote migration, we already check that the config can be parsed
on the target. Do the same for intra-cluster migration, to avoid
issues like [0] for future new settings, with settings being
unexpectedly ignored on the target, and in the case of qemu-server
even relatively silently dropped (there are warnings in the target's
system logs). In case of containers, an example is migrating a
container with a mountpoint with 'keepattrs' to a node with a too old
pve-container version, resulting in the mountpoint not being mounted
on the target.

The first few patches for each repository are cleanups/tiny
improvements that would be nice to have in any case.

Unfortunately, before patch "qm: mtunnel: reply when a command is
unknown", when a command is unknown, mtunnel did not reply at all.
Therefore, this delays VM backwards migrations to qemu-server versions
less than the next bumped version (at the time of this writing
expected to be 9.1.5) by 3 seconds.

I opted for 3 seconds, since config parsing should be very quick and
5 seconds would still be very noticeable for a bulk migration of VMs
on a shared storage with a fast network. Right now, the option won't
help anyways, only once we add a new config option (at which point
we could bump it to 5 seconds).

For containers, an 'mtunnel' endpoint is added and changes to stderr
handling for the tunnel are useful, see guest-common patch "tunnel:
redirect stderr to log function".
