When restoring a container with `pct restore`, the `--password` and
`--ssh-public-keys` options are silently ignored. The `create_vm` API
endpoint only invokes the `post_create_hook` during initial container
creation, skipping it entirely for restores.
To resolve this, make the credential updates in
`PVE::LXC::Setup::Base::post_create_hook` conditional. The
hook now applies the password or SSH keys only if they are explicitly
defined.
Invoke the hook for create/restore.
