The inactive external snapshot code replaced the file name in the virStorageSource but did not touch the backing files. This meant that after an inactive snapshot the backing chain recorded in the inactive XML (which is used with -blockdev) would be incorrect. Fix it by adding a new layer if there is an existing chain and replacing the virStorageSource struct fully when there is no chain.
