Proxmox inventory plugin - Fix string to dict conversion (#4349)

* Proxmox inventory plugin - Fix string to dict conversion (#4348)

  * Re-use the (defined but unused) `plaintext_configs` variable to list
    configuration entries that should be ignored by the string to
    dictionary conversion code. At this point, it only contains the
    `description` string.
  * Convert to a dictionary if the all substrings obtained by splitting
    off the initial value with commas contain a `=` character
  * Limit substring splitting to a single split, so that a substring
    containing `a=b=c` will generate an `a` entry with value `b=c`.

* Added changelog fragment for PR #4349

* Fix changelog fragment for #4349
