There are many existing qcow2 images that specify a backing file but
no format. This has been the source of CVEs in the past, but has
become more prominent of a problem now that libvirt has switched to
-blockdev. With older -drive, at least the probing was always done by
qemu (so the only risk of a changed format between successive boots of
a guest was if qemu was upgraded and probed differently). But with
newer -blockdev, libvirt must specify a format; if libvirt guesses raw
where the image was formatted, this results in data corruption visible
to the guest; conversely, if libvirt guesses qcow2 where qemu was
using raw, this can result in potential security holes, so modern
libvirt instead refuses to use images without explicit backing format.
The change in libvirt to reject images without explicit backing format
has pointed out that a number of tools have been far too reliant on
probing in the past. It's time to set a better example in our own
iotests of properly setting this parameter.
iotest calls to create, rebase, and convert are all impacted to some
degree. It's a bit annoying that we are inconsistent on command line
- while all of those accept -o backing_file=...,backing_fmt=..., the
shortcuts are different: create and rebase have -b and -F, while
convert has -B but no -F. (amend has no shortcuts, but the previous
patch just deprecated the use of amend to change backing chains).

Disk sizes close to INT64_MAX cause overflow, for some pretty
ridiculous output:
$ ./nbdkit -U - memory size=$((2**63 - 512)) --run 'qemu-img info $nbd'
image: nbd+unix://?socket=/tmp/nbdkitHSAzNz/socket
file format: raw
virtual size: -8388607T (9223372036854775296 bytes)
disk size: unavailable
But there's no reason to have two separate implementations of integer
to human-readable abbreviation, where one has overflow and stops at
'T', while the other avoids overflow and goes all the way to 'E'. With
this patch, the output now claims 8EiB instead of -8388607T, which
really is the correct rounding of largest file size supported by qemu
(we could go 511 bytes larger if we used byte-accurate sizing instead
of rounding up to the next sector boundary, but that wouldn't change
the human-readable result).
Quite a few iotests need updates to expected output to match.

handle a null value directly in bdrv_open_inherit().

Some guests (win2008 server for example) do a lot of unnecessary
flushing when underlying media has not changed. This adds additional
overhead on host when calling fsync/fdatasync.
This change introduces a write generation scheme in BlockDriverState.
Current write generation is checked against last flushed generation to
avoid unnessesary flushes.
The problem with excessive flushing was found by a performance test
which does parallel directory tree creation (from 2 processes).
Results improved from 0.424 loops/sec to 0.432 loops/sec.
Each loop creates 10^3 directories with 10 files in each.
This affected some blkdebug testcases that were expecting error logs from
failure-injected flushes which are now skipped entirely
(tests 026 071 089).
This also affects the performance of block jobs and thus BLOCK_JOB_READY
events for driver-mirror and active block-commit commands now arrives
faster, before QMP send successfully returns to caller (tests 141 144).

Add the bit width of every refcount entry to the format-specific
information.
In contrast to lazy_refcounts and the corrupt flag, this should be
always emitted, even for compat=0.10 although it does not support any
refcount width other than 16 bits. This is because if a boolean is
optional, one normally assumes it to be false when omitted; but if an
integer is not specified, it is rather difficult to guess its value.
This new field breaks some test outputs, fix them.

qcow2_cache_flush() may fail; if one of the caches failed to be flushed
successfully to disk in qcow2_close() the image should not be marked
clean, and we should emit a warning.
This breaks the (qcow2-specific) iotests 026, 071 and 089; change their
output accordingly.

Just like lazy-refcounts, this field will be present iff the qcow2
compat level is 1.1 (or probably any future revision).
As expected, this breaks some tests due to the new field present in
qemu-img info output; so fix their output accordingly.

Currently, test 089 uses $QEMU_IMG info manually in order to obtain the
according output. However, the iotests should generally use _img_info as
this filters out more irrelevant information such as the host image size
or format specific information. Therefore, test 089 should use _img_info
as well.
