If the namespace does not exist, rbd_create() fails with -ENOENT and
QEMU reports a generic "error rbd create: No such file or directory":
$ qemu-img create rbd:rbd/namespace/image 1M
Formatting 'rbd:rbd/namespace/image', fmt=raw size=1048576
qemu-img: rbd:rbd/namespace/image: error rbd create: No such file or directory
Unfortunately rados_ioctx_set_namespace() does not fail if the namespace
does not exist, so let's use rbd_namespace_exists() in qemu_rbd_connect()
to check if the namespace exists, reporting a more understandable error:
$ qemu-img create rbd:rbd/namespace/image 1M
Formatting 'rbd:rbd/namespace/image', fmt=raw size=1048576
qemu-img: rbd:rbd/namespace/image: namespace 'namespace' does not exist
