Actually writing all the content with 512 byte sector size would take
forever, therefore build the image file with a Python script and use
qemu-io for the last write that actually triggers the refcount table
growth.

This new command sets feature bits in the image file header:
qcow2.py set-feature-bit incompatible|compatible|autoclear <bit>
The bit number must be in the range [0, 64).

qcow2.py must be updated to work with version 3 images at all, the
output has changed since the feature table extension has been added, and
version 2 and version 3 images can't possibly have the same test output.
Change the test case to completely ignore IMGOPTS and run the test for
both compat=1.1 and compat=0.10 regardless of the ./check command line.

This adds a tool that is meant to inspect and edit qcow2 files in a
low-level way, that wouldn't be possible with qemu-img/io, for example
by adding yet unknown extensions or flags. This way we can test whether
qemu deals properly with future backwards compatible extensions.
For now, let's start with the image header and header extensions.
