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).

One of the recent commits changed the way qemu-io prints out its
errors and warnings - they are now prefixed with the program name.
We've got to adapt the iotests accordingly to prevent that they
are failing.

This will let us print options in a format that the user would actually
write it on the command line (foo=bar,baz=asd,etc=def), without
prepending a spurious comma at the beginning of the list, or quoting
values unnecessarily. This patch provides the following changes:
* write and id=, if the option has an id
* do not print separator before the first element
* do not quote string arguments
* properly escape commas (,) for QEMU

If backing file doesn't exist, the error message is confusing and
misleading:
$ qemu /tmp/a.qcow2
qemu: could not open disk image /tmp/a.qcow2: Could not open file: No
such file or directory
But...
$ ls /tmp/a.qcow2
/tmp/a.qcow2
$ qemu-img info /tmp/a.qcow2
image: /tmp/a.qcow2
file format: qcow2
virtual size: 8.0G (8589934592 bytes)
disk size: 196K
cluster_size: 65536
backing file: /tmp/b.qcow2
Because...
$ ls /tmp/b.qcow2
ls: cannot access /tmp/b.qcow2: No such file or directory
This is not intuitive. It's better to have the missing file's name in
the error message. With this patch:
$ qemu-io -c 'read 0 512' /tmp/a.qcow2
qemu-io: can't open device /tmp/a.qcow2: Could not open backing
file: Could not open '/stor/vm/arch.raw': No such file or directory
no file open, try 'help open'
Which is a little bit better.

Add a test case for trying to open an image file where it is impossible
to open its backing file (in this case, because it was deleted). When
doing this, qemu (or qemu-io in this case) should not crash but rather
print an appropriate error message.
