Restoring a snapshot can break a suspended guest. Snapshots suffer from
the same suspended-state issues that affect live migration, plus they must
handle an additional problematic scenario, which is that a running vm must
remain running if it loads a suspended snapshot.
To save, the existing vm_stop call now completely stops the suspended
state. Finish with vm_resume to leave the vm in the state it had prior
to the save, correctly restoring the suspended state.
To load, if the snapshot is not suspended, then vm_stop + vm_resume
correctly handles all states, and leaves the vm in the state it had prior
to the load. However, if the snapshot is suspended, restoration is
trickier. First, call vm_resume to restore the state to suspended so the
current state matches the saved state. Then, if the pre-load state is
running, call wakeup to resume running.
Prior to these changes, the vm_stop to RUN_STATE_SAVE_VM and
RUN_STATE_RESTORE_VM did not change runstate if the current state was
suspended, but now it does, so allow these transitions.

Make snapshot deletion consistent with the snapshot save
and load commands by using a wrapper around the blockdev
layer. The main difference is that we get upfront validation
of the passed in device list (if any).

The traditional HMP "savevm" command will overwrite an existing snapshot
if it already exists with the requested name. This new flag allows this
to be controlled allowing for safer behaviour with a future QMP command.

None of the callers care about the errno value since there is a full
Error object populated. This gives consistency with save_snapshot()
which already just returns a boolean value.
