The patch adds some preparation parts for incompatible compression type
feature to qcow2 allowing the use different compression methods for
image clusters (de)compressing.
It is implied that the compression type is set on the image creation and
can be changed only later by image conversion, thus compression type
defines the only compression algorithm used for the image, and thus,
for all image clusters.
The goal of the feature is to add support of other compression methods
to qcow2. For example, ZSTD which is more effective on compression than ZLIB.
The default compression is ZLIB. Images created with ZLIB compression type
are backward compatible with older qemu versions.
Adding of the compression type breaks a number of tests because now the
compression type is reported on image creation and there are some changes
in the qcow2 header in size and offsets.
The tests are fixed in the following ways:
* filter out compression_type for many tests
* fix header size, feature table size and backing file offset
affected tests: 031, 036, 061, 080
header_size +=8: 1 byte compression type
7 bytes padding
feature_table += 48: incompatible feature compression type
backing_file_offset += 56 (8 + 48 -> header_change + feature_table_change)
* add "compression type" for test output matching when it isn't filtered
affected tests: 049, 060, 061, 065, 082, 085, 144, 182, 185, 198, 206,
242, 255, 274, 280

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.
