In snapshotting there is no guest involved, so we can safely use a writeback
mode and do the flushes in the right place (i.e. at the very end). This
improves the time that creating/restoring an internal snapshot takes with an
image in writethrough mode.

Currently it would consider blocks for which get_refcount fails used. However,

After it is done with updating refcounts in the cache, update_refcount writes
all changed entries to disk. If a refcount block allocation fails, however,
there was no change yet and therefore first_index = last_index = -1. Don't
treat -1 as a normal sector index (resulting in a 512 byte write!) but return
without updating anything in this case.

Refblock allocation code needs to take into consideration that update_refcount
will load a different refcount block into the cache, so it must initialize the
cache for a new refcount block only afterwards. Not doing this means that not
only the refcount in the wrong block is updated, but also that the caller will
work on the wrong block.

Format drivers shouldn't need to bother with things like file names, but rather
just get an open BlockDriverState for the underlying protocol. This patch
introduces this behaviour for bdrv_open implementation. For protocols which
need to access the filename to open their file/device/connection/... a new
callback bdrv_file_open is introduced which doesn't get an underlying file
opened.
For now, also some of the more obscure formats use bdrv_file_open because they
open() the file themselves instead of using the block.c functions. They need to
be fixed in later patches.

The current implementation of alloc_refcount_block and grow_refcount_table has
fundamental problems regarding error handling. There are some places where an
I/O error means that the image is going to be corrupted. I have found that the
only way to fix this is to completely rewrite the thing.
In detail, the problem is that the refcount blocks itself are allocated using
alloc_refcount_noref (to avoid endless recursion when updating the refcount of
the new refcount block, which migh access just the same refcount block but its
allocation is not yet completed...). Only at the end of the refcount allocation
the refcount of the refcount block is increased. If an error happens in
between, the refcount block is in use, but has a refcount of zero and will
likely be overwritten later.
The new approach is explained in comments in the code. The trick is basically
to let new refcount blocks describe their own refcount, so their refcount will
be automatically changed when they are hooked up in the refcount table.

When the refcount table grows, it doesn't only grow by one entry but reserves
some space for future refcount blocks. The algorithm to calculate the number of
entries stays the same with the fixes, so factor it out before replacing the
rest.
As Juan suggested take the opportunity to simplify the code a bit.

This patch increases the maximum qcow2 cluster size to 2 MB. Starting with 128k
clusters, L2 tables span 2 GB or more of virtual disk space, causing 32 bit
truncation and wraparound of signed integers. Therefore some variables need to
use a larger data type.
While being at reviewing data types, change some integers that are used for
array indices to unsigned. In some places they were checked against some upper
limit but not for negative values. This could avoid potential segfaults with
corrupted qcow2 images.

Contrary to what one could expect, the size of L1 tables is not cluster
aligned. So as we're writing whole sectors now instead of single entries,
we need to ensure that the L1 table in memory is large enough; otherwise
write would access memory after the end of the L1 table.

The really time consuming part of snapshotting is to adjust the reference count
of all clusters. Currently after each adjusted cluster the refcount block is
written to disk.
Don't write each single byte immediately to disk but cache all writes to the
