fix(cluster): validate container IDs cluster-wide across all nodes

- Query /cluster/resources via pvesh to check all VMs/CTs on ALL nodes
- Check /etc/pve/nodes/*/qemu-server and /etc/pve/nodes/*/lxc dirs
- Handles pmxcfs sync delays that caused sporadic ID conflicts
- Remove duplicate validate_container_id/get_valid_container_id definitions
- Add max_attempts safeguard to prevent infinite loops
