By default, require 4k of consecutive zero bytes for qemu-img to make the
output file sparse by not issuing a write request for the zeroed parts. Add an
-S option to allow users to tune this setting.
This helps to avoid situations where a lot of zero sectors and data sectors are
mixed and qemu-img tended to issue many tiny 512 byte writes.

This patch adds -drive cache=directsync for O_DIRECT | O_SYNC host file
I/O with no disk write cache presented to the guest.
This mode is useful when guests may not be sending flushes when
appropriate and therefore leave data at risk in case of power failure.
When cache=directsync is used, write operations are only completed to
the guest when data is safely on disk.
This new mode is like cache=writethrough but it bypasses the host page
cache.

qemu-img.c wants to count allocated file size of image. Previously it
counts a single bs->file by 'stat' or Window API. As VMDK introduces
multiple file support, the operation becomes format specific with
platform specific meanwhile.
The functions are moved to block/raw-{posix,win32}.c and qemu-img.c calls
bdrv_get_allocated_file_size to count the bs. And also added VMDK code
to count his own extents.

qemu-img currently writes disk images using writeback and filling
up the cache buffers which are then flushed by the kernel preventing
other processes from accessing the storage.
This is particularly bad in cluster environments where time-based
algorithms might be in place and accessing the storage within
certain timeouts is critical.
This patch adds the option to choose a cache method when writing
disk images.

For shrinking images, you're supposed to use a negative size. However, the
leading minus makes getopt think that it's an option and so you get the help
text if you don't use -- like in 'qemu-img resize test.img -- -1G'.
This patch handles the size first and removes it from the argument list so that
getopt won't even try to interpret it and you don't need -- any more.

QEMU can drop a backing file so that an image file no longer depends on
the backing file, but this feature has not been exposed in qemu-img.
This is useful in an image streaming usecase or when an image file has
been fully allocated and no reads can hit the backing file anymore.
Since the dropping the backing file can make the image unusable, only
allow this when the unsafe flag has been set.

The old -B option caused a backing file to be used for the converted image and
to avoid copying clusters from the old backing file. When replaced with
-obacking_file, qemu-img convert does assign the backing file to the new image,

file.
