This reports the error from qemu_rbd_convert_options(), as you commit
message explains.  Would explaining it in a comment help future readers?

"Future versions may ... in the future": you're serious about this
happening only in the future, aren't you?  ;)

Quote error_report()'s contract: "The resulting message should be a
single phrase, with no newline or trailing punctuation."

Let's scratch everything from the first period on.
