ff812c5563 qcow2: handle_dependencies(): relax conflict detection
There is no conflict and no dependency if we have parallel writes to
different subclusters of one cluster when the cluster itself is already
allocated. So, relax extra dependency.

Measure performance:
First, prepare build/qemu-img-old and build/qemu-img-new images.

cd scripts/simplebench
./img_bench_templater.py

Paste the following to stdin of running script:

qemu_img=../../build/qemu-img-{old|new}
$qemu_img create -f qcow2 -o extended_l2=on /ssd/x.qcow2 1G
$qemu_img bench -c 100000 -d 8 [-s 2K|-s 2K -o 512|-s $((1024*2+512))] \
        -w -t none -n /ssd/x.qcow2

The result:

All results are in seconds

------------------  ---------  ---------
                    old        new
-s 2K               6.7 ± 15%  6.2 ± 12%
                                 -7%
-s 2K -o 512        13 ± 3%    11 ± 5%
                                 -16%
-s $((1024*2+512))  9.5 ± 4%   8.4
                                 -12%
------------------  ---------  ---------

So small writes are more independent now and that helps to keep deeper
io queue which improves performance.

271 iotest output becomes racy for three allocation in one cluster.
Second and third writes may finish in different order. Second and
third requests don't depend on each other any more. Still they both
depend on first request anyway. Filter out second and third write
offsets to cover both possible outputs.

9dd003a998 iotests: define group in each iotest
We are going to drop group file. Define group in tests as a preparatory
step.

The patch is generated by

    cd tests/qemu-iotests

    grep '^[0-9]\{3\} ' group | while read line; do
        file=$(awk '{print $1}' <<< "$line");
        groups=$(sed -e 's/^... //' <<< "$line");
        awk "NR==2{print \"# group: $groups\"}1" $file > tmp;
        cat tmp > $file;
    done
