Allows shipping snapshots automatically to remote clusters on a cron,
identically to how autobackup handles local snapshot exports.
VMs are selected based on configured tags, and individual destination
clusters can be specified based on a colon-separated suffix to the
tag(s).
Automirror snapshots use the prefix "am" (analogous to "ab" for
autobackups) to differentiate them from normal "mr" mirrors.
Adds two helper commands which automate sending and promoting VM
snapshots as "vm mirror" commands.
"vm mirror create" replicates the functionality of "snapshot create" and
"snapshot send", performing both in one single task using an
autogenerated dated snapshot name for automatic cross-cluster
replication.
"vm mirror promote" replicates the functionality of "vm shutdown",
"snapshot create", "snapshot send", "vm start" (remote), and,
optionally, "vm remove", performing in one single task an entire
cross-cluster VM move with or without retaining the copy on the local
cluster (if retained, the local copy becomes a snapshot mirror of the
remote, flipping their statuses).
Moves VM autobackups from being in-CLI to being handled by the
pvcworkerd system on the primary coordinator. Turns the CLI autobackup
command into an actual API client endpoint rather than having its logic
in the CLI.
In addition, modifies the new autobackup to leverage the new "pvc vm
snapshot" function set, just with special snapshot names. This helps
automate this within the new snapshot scaffolding.
Moves all tasks run by the Celery worker into a discrete package/module
for easier installation. Also adjusts several parameters throughout to
accomplish this.
