qcow2: Constant cache size in bytes

Specifying the metadata cache sizes in clusters results in less clusters
(and much less bytes) covered for small cluster sizes and vice versa.
Using a constant byte size reduces this difference, and makes it
possible to manually specify the cache size in an easily comprehensible
unit.
