copy-on-read: skip non-guest reads if no copy needed

Browse Source 
If the flag BDRV_REQ_PREFETCH was set, skip idling read/write
operations in COR-driver. It can be taken into account for the
COR-algorithms optimization. That check is being made during the
block stream job by the moment.

Add the BDRV_REQ_PREFETCH flag to the supported_read_flags of the
COR-filter.

block: Modify the comment for the flag BDRV_REQ_PREFETCH as we are
going to use it alone and pass it to the COR-filter driver for further
processing.
