cecc5b8fc0 contrib/qemu: disable coroutine caching in qemu
Coroutine caching in qemu is dangerous in the manner that the
qemu-block translator embeds the qemu block subsystem code. After
a graph switch, new requests can fork off and pass active graph
data structures (i.e., inodes) down into old syncenvs and old
graphs, leading to failures.

53e98f11d1 features/qemu-block: support for QCOW2 and QED formats
This patch adds support for internals snapshots using QCOW2 and
general framework for external snapshots (next patch) with
QCOW2 and QED.

For internal snapshots, the file must be "initialized" or
"formatted" into QCOW2 format, and specify a file size.

Snapshots can be created, deleted, and applied ("goto").

e.g:

 // Format and Initialize

sh# setfattr -n trusted.glusterfs.block-format -v qcow2:10GB /mnt/imgfile
sh# ls -l /mnt/imgfile
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 10G Jul 18 21:20 imgfile

 // Create a snapshot

sh# setfattr -n trusted.glusterfs.block-snapshot-create -v name1 imgfile

 // Apply a snapshot

sh# setfattr -n trusted.gluterfs.block-snapshot-goto -v name1 imgfile
