Friedrich Weber 502c84b1ee window: edit: avoid sharing custom config objects between subclasses
Currently, `Proxmox.window.Edit` initializes `extraRequestParams` and
`submitOptions` to two objects that, if not overwritten, are shared
between all instances of subclasses. This bears the danger of
modifying the shared object in a subclass instead of overwriting it,
which affects all edit windows of the current session and can cause
hard-to-catch GUI bugs.

One such bug is the following: Currently, the `PVE.pool.AddStorage`
component inadvertently adds `poolid` to an `extraRequestParams`
object that is shared between all instances of `Proxmox.window.Edit`.
As a result, after adding a storage to a pool, opening any edit window
will send a GET request with a superfluous `poolid` parameter and
cause an error in the GUI:

> Parameter verification failed. (400)
> poolid: property is not defined in schema and the schema does not
> allow additional properties

This breaks all edit windows of the current session. A workaround is
to reload the current browser session.

To avoid this class of bugs in the future, implement a constructor
that makes copies of `extraRequestParams` and `submitOptions`. This
ensures that any subclass instance modifies only its own copies, and
modifications do not leak to other subclass instances.
