[pve-devel] [PATCH container v3] Fix pct skiplock

The method vm_start sets an environment variable that is not picked up
anymore by systemd. This patch removes the environment variable and
introduces a skiplock file that is picked up by the
lxc-pve-prestart-hook.

note: after discussion with Fabian, I removed the ENV variable. But I left the
path of the skiplock file because we use it on other places in the code too.
Though, I added a cleanup step if the container start fails.
