Fix terms, typos and grammar mistakes in the API, error messages, events, etc. (#7857)
This PR aligns the use of terminology, renaming VM / virtual machine references to 'Instance' and also capitalising the terms Templates, Network, Snapshot, User, Account in CloudStack APIs, error and log messages, events, tooltips, etc. Many typos, grammar and spelling mistakes were fixed, also terms like IPv4, VPN, VPC, etc. were properly capitalised. Some error messages were cleaned for better readability. The test cases, expecting some exception strings were adjusted accordingly.

Here is the wiki page, describing the changes in details:

Fix of create a template from a StorPool snapshot on another zone (#11490)
* Fix of create template from snapshot on another zone

When a snapshot has a copy on StorPool primary storage in another zone, but the original snapshot resides on secondary storage, creating a template from the copied snapshot results in the template being created in the first zone.
If the snapshot.backup.to.secondary setting is disabled, and a user creates a volume or template from a snapshot, the snapshot is temporarily backed up to secondary storage during the operation. After the operation, this backup should be deleted. However, the snapshot currently remains on both primary and secondary storage.

Extensions Framework & Orchestrate Anything (#9752)
The Extensions Framework in Apache CloudStack is designed to provide a flexible and standardised mechanism for integrating external systems and custom workflows into CloudStack’s orchestration process. By defining structured hook points during key operations—such as virtual machine deployment, resource preparation, and lifecycle events—the framework allows administrators and developers to extend CloudStack’s behaviour without modifying its core codebase.

feature: Support Multi-arch Zones (#9619)
This introduces the multi-arch zones, allowing users to select the VM arch upon deployment. 

Multi-arch zone support in CloudStack can allow admins to mix x86_64 & arm64 hosts within the same zone with the following changes proposed:
- All hosts in a clusters need to be homogenous, wrt host CPU type (amd64 vs arm64) and hypevisor
- Arch-aware templates & ISOs:
   -  Add support for a new arch field (default set of: amd64 and arm64), when unspecified defaults to amd64 and for existing templates & iso
   -  Allow admins to edit the arch type of the registered template & iso
- Arch-aware clusters and host:
   - Add new attribute field for cluster and hosts (kvm host agents can automatically report this, arch of the first host of the cluster is cluster's architecture), defaults to amd64 when not specified
   - Allow admins to edit the arch of an existing cluster
- VM deployment form (UI):
   - In a multi-arch zone/env, the VM deployment form can allow some kind of template/iso filtration in the UI
   - Users should be able to select arch: amd64 & arm64; but this is shown only in a multi-arch zone (env)
- VM orchestration and lifecycle operations:
   - Use of VM/template's arch to correctly decide where to provision the VM (on the correct strictly arch-matching host/clusters) & other lifecycle operations (such as migration from/to arch-matching hosts)

api,server,ui: granular resource limit management (#8362)
Feature spec: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/Granular+Resource+Limit+Management

Introduces the concept of tagged resource limits for granular resource limit management. Limits can be enforced on accounts and domains for the deployment of entities for a tagged resource. Current tagged resource limits can be used for the following resource types,

Host limits
- user_vm
- cpu
- memory

Storage limits
- volume
- primary_storage

Following global settings can used to specify tags for which limit needs to be enforced,

Host: `resource.limit.host.tags`
Storage: `resource.limit.storage.tags`

Option for specifying tagged resource limits and viewing tagged resource usage are made available in the UI.

Enhances the use of templatetag for VM deployment and template creation

Adds option to list service/compute offerings that can be used with a given template. A new parameter named templateid has been added.

Adds option to list disk offering with suitability flag for a virtual machine. A new parameter named virtualmachineid has been added to the listDiskOfferings API which when passed returns suitableforvirtualmachine param in the response.

api,server,ui: snapshot copy, multi-zone replica (#7873)
This PR adds new functionality to copy snapshots across zones and take snapshots for multiple zones.

Copy functionality is similar to template copy. The source zone acts as the web server from where the destination zone(s) can download the snapshot files. For this purpose, a new API - `copySnapshot` has been added. The response for copySnapshot will be returning zone and download details from the first destination zone of the request. This behaviour is similar to the `copyTemplate` API.

In a similar manner, multiple zones can be selected while taking the snapshots or creating snapshot policies. For this snapshot will be taken in the base zone(in which volume is present) and then copied to the additional zones. A new parameter - `zoneids` has been added to `createSnapshot` and `createSnapshotPolicy` APIs.

As snapshots can be present on multiple zones (secondary stores), a new parameter `zoneid` has been added to delete the snapshot copy on a specific zone.

`listSnapshots` API has been updated to allow listing snapshot entries for different zones/datastores. New parameters - `showUnique`, `locationType` have been added.

Events generated during snapshot operations will now be linked to the snapshot itself rather than the volume of the snapshot.

`listSnapshotPolicies` and `createSnapshotPolicy` APIs will return zone details of the zones in which backup will be scheduled for the policy.

----
New API added

plugins: Add Custom hypervisor minimal changes (#7692)
### Description

Design document: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/%5BDRAFT%5D+Minimal+changes+to+allow+new+dynamic+hypervisor+type%3A+Custom+Hypervisor

This PR introduces the minimal changes to add a new hypervisor type (internally named Custom in the codebase, and configurable display name), allowing to write an external hypervisor plugin as a Custom Hypervisor to CloudStack

The custom hypervisor name is set by the setting: 'hypervisor.custom.display.name'. The new hypervisor type does not affect the behaviour of any CloudStack operation, it simply introduces a new hypervisor type into the system.

CloudStack does not have any means to dynamically add new hypervisor types. The hypervisor types are internally preset by an enum defined within the CloudStack codebase and unless a new version supports a new hypervisor it is not possible to add a host of a hypervisor that is not in part of the enum. It is possible to implement minimal changes in CloudStack to support a new hypervisor plugin that may be developed privately

This PR is an initial work on allowing new dynamic hypervisor types (adds a new element to the HypervisorType enum, but allows variable display name for the hypervisor)

##### Proposed Future work:
Replace the HypervisorType from a fixed enum to an extensible registry mechanism, registered from the hypervisor plugin

#### Feature Specifications
- The new hypervisor type is internally named 'Custom' to the CloudStack services (management server and agent services, database records).
- A new global setting ‘hypervisor.custom.display.name’ allows administrators to set the display name of the hypervisor type. The display name will be shown in the CloudStack UI and API.
   - In case the ‘hypervisor.list’ setting contains the display name of the new hypervisor type, the setting value is automatically updated after the ‘hypervisor.custom.display.name’ setting is updated.
- The new Custom hypervisor type supports:
   - Direct downloads (the ability to download templates into primary storage from the hypervisor hosts without using secondary storage)
   - Local storage (use hypervisor hosts local storage as primary storage)
   - Template format: RAW format (the templates to be registered on the new hypervisor type must be in RAW format)
- The UI is also extended to display the new hypervisor type and the supported features listed above.
- The above are the minimal changes for CloudStack to support the new hypervisor type, which can be tested by integrating the plugin codebase with this feature.


#### Use cases
This PR allows the cloud administrators to test custom hypervisor plugins implementations in CloudStack and easily integrate it into CloudStack as a new hypervisor type ("Custom"), reducing the implementation to only the hypervisor supported specific storage/networking and the hypervisor resource to communicate with the management server.

- CloudStack admin should be able to create a zone for the new custom hypervisor and add clusters, hosts into the zone with normal operations
- CloudStack users should be able to execute normal VMs/volumes/network/storage operations on VMs/volumes running on the custom hypervisor hosts

server: Allow download of system vm templates (#6750)
Currently, ACS does not allow the user to download System VM Templates, even though it may be usefull as it can speed up the registration process of the template for production once the homologation is done beforehand. This PR changes this, allowing the user to download said VM Templates
