Exanding ZFS Root Parition on a Live System

The Problem My server, cprox, as I call it, was set up with only 64GB of storage on the root partition. I don’t know what I was thinking at the time, but this caused issues only a week after setting up the new server. Within this time, the OS, packages, and other things Proxmox does, consumed 86% of the drive. This made things run slowly and caused the command line to freeze sometimes, which was very weird since the OS was on mirrored SSDs - which is exactly what allowed me to do this resizing live.
