The function is used also to compare virStorageSource which may not be resolved to the image at that point in which case the 'path' is not yet populated and the actual type is not yet set. This means that the function fails to consider two identical volume-based disks as pointing to the same thing. Add a special case for both images being type=volume in which case we compare only the pool/volume names.
