Stefan Hajnoczi b53169eae0 blockdev: add sync mode to drive-backup QMP command
The drive-backup command is similar to the drive-mirror command, except
no guest data written after the command executes gets copied.  Add a
sync mode argument which determines whether the entire disk is copied,
just allocated clusters, or only clusters being written to by the guest.

Currently only sync mode 'full' is supported - it copies the entire disk.
For read-only point-in-time snapshots we may only need sync mode 'none'
since the target can be a qcow2 file using the guest's disk as its
backing file (no need to copy the entire disk).  Finally, sync mode
'top' is useful if we wish to preserve the backing chain.

Note that this patch just adds the sync mode argument to drive-backup.
It does not implement sync modes 'top' or 'none'.  This patch is
necessary so we can add a drive-backup HMP command that behaves like the
existing drive-mirror HMP command and takes a sync mode.

#
# Absolute paths are derived from the root object and can follow child<>
# or link<> properties. Since they can follow link<> properties, they
# can be arbitrarily long. Absolute paths look like absolute filenames
# and are prefixed with a leading slash.
#
# Partial paths look like relative filenames. They do not begin
# with a prefix. The matching rules for partial paths are subtle but
# designed to make specifying objects easy. At each level of the
# composition tree, the partial path is matched as an absolute path.
# The first match is not returned. At least two matches are searched
# for. A successful result is only returned if only one match is
# found. If more than one match is found, a flag is return to
# indicate that the match was ambiguous.
#
# @property: The property name to read
#
# Returns: The property value. The type depends on the property type. legacy<>
