Instances can be marked as a base with instance.is_base and other
instances inherit config values from it through instance.base_id.
The controller copies base values into inheriting configs and keeps
track of inherited fields in the hidden instance.inherited_fields, so
hosts receive resolved configs and need no changes. Setting a field
stops inheriting it, `instance config inherit` undoes that.
Bases cannot be assigned to a host, are hidden from `instance list`
unless --bases is given, and cannot be deleted or unmarked while
other instances inherit from them. Chains of bases are allowed and
cycles are rejected.
