Christian Manivong a13af149d9 feat(vm-provision): let Proxmox download cloud images into an import storage 
Provisioning downloaded every cloud image over SSH into
/var/lib/vz/template/netork-images, on the node's root filesystem. On a
small root that fills up and takes Proxmox down with it (netOrk #480).

When the node has an active storage with content type "import" (Proxmox
8.2+), Proxmox now does it itself: download-url with checksum
verification into that storage, then import-from as the root disk. The
file is named after a hash of the full URL and reused when present.
Proxmox takes the format from the extension and has no ".img", so
Ubuntu's qcow2 .img is stored as .qcow2 -- a wrong guess fails at import
instead of attaching a qcow2 container as a raw disk.

Without an import storage, or for an image type Proxmox cannot import,
the SSH download is used as before.

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

The format is based on Keep a Changelog, and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.

[Unreleased]

Added

  • Cloud images for create_vm_from_cloud_init are downloaded by Proxmox itself when the node has an active storage with content type import (Proxmox 8.2+): download-url with checksum verification, then import-from as the root disk. The image no longer passes through the node's root filesystem. Files are named netork-<url hash>-<name>.<qcow2|raw|vmdk> and reused; Ubuntu's .img is stored as .qcow2. Without such a storage, or for an image type Proxmox cannot import, the SSH download into /var/lib/vz/template/netork-images is used as before.
  • HypervisorDriver contract methods start_vm, stop_vm, reboot_vm, suspend_vm and get_vm_config. They accept a VM's name or vmid, raise ValueError/RuntimeError instead of returning a result dict, and wait for the Proxmox task to finish. power_vm is unchanged.
  • Snapshot methods get_vm_snapshots, create_vm_snapshot, delete_vm_snapshot, rollback_vm_snapshot for VMs and containers (containers never save RAM state).
  • reboot_host() restarts the node through the API instead of SSH.

Changed

  • get_vms() reports vmid as a string ("100"), following napalm-device-types 2.0. Ordering stays numeric.
