Eric Blake b66ff2c298 iotests: Specify explicit backing format where sensible
There are many existing qcow2 images that specify a backing file but
no format.  This has been the source of CVEs in the past, but has
become more prominent of a problem now that libvirt has switched to
-blockdev.  With older -drive, at least the probing was always done by
qemu (so the only risk of a changed format between successive boots of
a guest was if qemu was upgraded and probed differently).  But with
newer -blockdev, libvirt must specify a format; if libvirt guesses raw
where the image was formatted, this results in data corruption visible
to the guest; conversely, if libvirt guesses qcow2 where qemu was
using raw, this can result in potential security holes, so modern
libvirt instead refuses to use images without explicit backing format.

The change in libvirt to reject images without explicit backing format
has pointed out that a number of tools have been far too reliant on
probing in the past.  It's time to set a better example in our own
iotests of properly setting this parameter.

iotest calls to create, rebase, and convert are all impacted to some
degree.  It's a bit annoying that we are inconsistent on command line
- while all of those accept -o backing_file=...,backing_fmt=..., the
shortcuts are different: create and rebase have -b and -F, while
convert has -B but no -F.  (amend has no shortcuts, but the previous
patch just deprecated the use of amend to change backing chains).

# The old copy-on-read mechanism without a filter node cannot request
# WRITE_UNCHANGED permissions for its child. Therefore it just tries
# to sneak its write by the usual permission system and holds its
# fingers crossed. However, that sneaking does not work so well when
# there is a filter node in the way: That will receive the write
# request and re-issue a new one to its child, which this time is a
# proper write request that will make the permission system cough --
# unless there is someone at the top (like a guest device) that has
# requested write permissions.
#
# A COR filter node, however, can request the proper permissions for
# its child and therefore is not hit by this issue.
